“Lauren and I were in the same hiring class as health technology sales representatives. It didn’t take long to pin her as a reliable, competent, and hard working employee. She was a fast learner and maintained professionalism and composure even in the face of tight deadlines and a difficult client base. Right off the bat, she was a self-starter. Lauren stayed ahead of her work from training tasks to hitting sales quotas to completing extra work she picked up through company-wide projects in other fields. Not only did she demonstrate excellent interpersonal skills in each realm she was involved in, but she demonstrated strong technical skills in her ability to pick up and relay information about health and health tech. Her hard work was recognized by leadership too. She was one of few in our hiring class that the managers appointed to lead meetings and coordinate with high-ranking guests, and her work was often used as an example in feedback for other employees. I enjoyed working with her, she would make a great asset to any team.”
