I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Braintree Laboratories (Chicago, IL) in May 2018
Interview
One phone interview with the district manager and two in-person interviews back to back days with the district manager and the national sales trainer. There is a short test on the product and a mock sales pitch where the managers role play as doctors and you are the sales rep selling your product.

Question 1
Why Braintree? Why pharmaceutical sales? How do you connect with people? How do you handle a doctor that says they will use your drug, but continually does not write prescriptions for it?
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Braintree Laboratories
Interview
The girl interviewing me was so unprofessional. She had no idea what the job was like because she never even did it. When I asked her what her favorite part of the job was she replied "the culture". I asked her to elaborate and all she said again was "the culture". She has no knowledge of the company or any aspect of the position she was hiring for. She was also very negative during the interview. She seemed annoyed to be doing the interview instead of intrigued to learn more about my skills.

Question 1
I was asked what I would do if I had a chance to get a new customer or lose that opportunity to help out a current large customer.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Braintree Laboratories
Interview
Had my resume posted online and was contacted by a recruiter. They do not post jobs on their own website, they only work with recruiters. First was a phone interview with recruiter, then with DM. Two in person interviews DM and AM and then you either get it or you don't.

Question 1
Nothing out of the ordinary... be prepared to detail whatever you currently sell, and the product you will be promoting.
