Hear from others just like you!

That desire to help others is very much what will be needed to tell your story in job interviews. How you translate that into the Salesforce Ohana and how your experience trickles down to the Salesforce clients will easily show your passion for Salesforce, the platform, and the community.

Lory Tibbets

Former Registered Nurse

Being able to help support and improve the systems that are working behind the scenes of healthcare is needed! Especially to those who've experienced what it's really like working on the front line. Switching to a career in Salesforce is how you can make an even bigger impact! Helping families and communities for generations to come with healthcare systems that truly support them can be done through Salesforce.

Go for it! It won't be easy but if you put in the effort you will get where you want to be! Be gentle with yourself. Remember you need to fail often to remember how to stand up after it.

You are going to get discouraged, you are going to doubt yourself, imposter syndrome will happen…KEEP GOING! As Bradley has said, “There is no quitting here.” The only way you fail is if you give up on yourself.

Former Compliance Analyst

The opportunities are endless. You can stay in healthcare and use your knowledge, or you can expand into other industries…Utilize the resources that are online and you will be able to learn - if you do grasp a concept on Trailhead, there are always other people who explain it differently and you can find someone who trains to fit your style of learning.

Your Questions Answered

Here are some questions or concerns we commonly hear from people thinking about making this transition

As a healthcare professional, I am looking for work/life balance. Can I find that in a Salesforce career?

Many companies have a, “as long as the work gets done, set your hours” type of policy. You truly can live a life by design, and still help people, where you don’t have to burn yourself out working 60+ hours a week.

How can I manage to be visible to Salesforce recruiters and hiring managers coming from the healthcare industry?

Work to increase your connections and network. Attend webinars and ask meaningful questions to get noticed. Find ways to highlight your skillset (via blogs, videos, etc.) or better yet, offer to teach others!

Because of my background in healthcare, should I focus on Health Cloud?

Everyone must decide for themselves what they would like to pursue in the Salesforce ecosystem. While your skills and understanding of the healthcare system will make you a strong candidate to focus on Health Cloud, your skills are transferable to any vertical or company.
