Astellas contract

As far as I know the contract is over, there are still reps working as contract but with offers in hand waiting to be rolled in. These other jobs could just be placeholders or temp to hire positions. But be warned, selling areas are huge! Drugs are a hard sell (depending on your bag), if you need it... take it! Otherwise you might want to start looking elsewhere...
 






Can someone please clarify the Astellas contract (or lack there of)? I live in the Midwest and I have seen an Astellas opening (not contract) posted in a city near me for the past month or two. Then, the first week in June, I noticed a posting for PSSG/Astellas. If the contract is allegedly over, why would Publicis be posting for positions with Astellas? If anyone can shed some light on this situation, I would really appreciate it! Thx, in advance!

The PSSG/Astellas posting is a legitimate opening to be rolled into Astellas at the end of the year.
