During this time, all posts will be available for view. However, no one will be able to make new posts during this time.


Any updates on hiring?









































































Can anyone share their thoughts on the bipolar 1 indication with Fanapt? They’re hiring all over the place and I received an offer but not sure it’s a good move. The car allowance is never ideal and agree with other posters who said it’s not even close to being enough to cover maintenance, gas, insurance, and a 9% interest rate car payment. I have reached out to quite a few folks in the psych space that haven’t had a ton good to say, including reps leaving in droves. Strange interview process too.

what was your base pay offer ?
It’s a tough sell, market so competitive,
If you can just get a few new docs to start writing Fanapt for bipolar your golden,
Benefits are good, but the car allowance/milage reimbursement is trash
 






How many territory managers and DMs was Vanda looking to hire before the hostile takeover? I see 36 rep and 19 DM positions posted. The 19 DM position suggests about 190 reps.

$130k. I declined and it sounds like it was a great decision to dodge a falling knife.
