Barbra about her position at Medtronic

Several different activities allow me to reach the goals that I have and eventually want to achieve. Next to that, I am studying a lot to deepen my knowledge about the function of the heart, its anatomical features and the operation of my products. The innovation in this field is going so fast, I must keep up to date constantly.

I combine the educational part of my job with building relationships with my customers when I am present at the operating procedures. Besides that, it’s important to respond to the needs of our customers, for example by providing trainings on all aspects which our products can offer to them.

What I like most in my current job

The good things about my job are that I learn new things every day, for example by means of studying, attending surgical procedures with our technical consultants or when my team members are helping me. My job will never be boring!

What I like about working for Medtronic

I like the good vibes and atmosphere within the company, both the ambience at the office as well as the team spirit. Everybody is willing to help one another, which is the reflection of a very experienced and mature culture in the company.

Also, the development opportunity which Medtronic gives me by letting me carry out projects by myself, but of course with the help of your colleagues and the team. This really accelerates the development of my own competences and skills.

My most memorable experiences at Medtronic

Up to now, my most memorable experience was the way people welcomed me to Medtronic. Everybody gave me a warm welcome and a helping hand, always willing to help. This is definitely not standard practice in all companies. It was the best start I could have wished for!
