Dear MS Management....

No one should be laughing about anything. Put your big boy pants on and grown up. It's exciting to have another therapy for such a terrible chronic disease. If you were passed on the job, just get over it. There will be other opportunities. Also, quit stereotyping Genentech Employees. Yes, I'm sure there are some real arrogant bastards, but not everyone is like that. It's hard when your passed on an opportunity, but you do yourself a complete disservice by continuing to come on here and read posts. It's almost as if you are wishing something bad to happen which is really warped and sick, my advice to anyone that was passed on: quit torturing yourself and coming on here and start to look for another great opportunity. There are plenty of other opportunities in the works right now.

I never applied I have a great job outside of MS. Many of my friends interviewed and were treated like crap. PML will happen and you will be brought back to reality. No need to be dicks on the interview.

How were they treated like crap? The whole follow-up process has been slow since my interview with the hiring manager, but I have been treated fairly the entire time. Maybe it depends on the hiring manager. Like any company, I'm sure this division has some egotistical and narcissistic ones. And, I am sure I will meet some of them in the final interviews.

I just don't get people like you and bringing up PML. Why be so negative and nasty, okay you or your friends didn't get the job, but your comments aren't helpful and you just sound like sour grapes.
 






what people are failing to see is defining who the best candidate would be is all subject to who is hiring. Awards, tenure, email print outs of your previous manager praising you does not get you the job. Managers analyze your skill set in person and how you present yourself. I knew a rep with less than 2 yrs experience that we hired bc when they walked in the room they had this personality and passion that filled the room. That was 4yrs ago and that person is doing very well. Good managers pick top talent based on the conversation they have with you not just your brag book

I think what people are pissed about (myself included) is that we were all given the same tired response of the decision making questions. I could not have been more detailed in my answers if I tried. The questions asked were truly bizarre. I'm an internal candidate as well. Or at least I was up until two weeks ago because I was part of the BS lucentis realignment. I'll try again to get back into Gene, but many people are right it's a club and hard to get in.

What this guy/gal said. ^
 












Sounds like their interview process is unprofessional and lacking. The amount of time they make reps wait between interviews is unheard of. If you have another job offer what are you suppose to do when Genentech has you waiting weeks?!

Completed my panels, what a clustet F, one guy half asleep and the other on his phone looking at chick pics. What the hell kind of outfit is this? The questions sucked and it appeared the panel choke artists only had oncology backgrounds. Hope others have a better experience plus my fugly roommate was up all night rehearsing and fumbling around. Damn asiatic who smelled and ordered rank to go food. She was on the throne every hour. Great group you are assembling Gene and piss 1!

You sound like a real treat.
 












It never surprises me that no matter what biotech or pharma company you interview with, Theres always disappointed in the business etiquette by managers. On the phone, texting, wrinkled dress clothes. Happens everywhere. There are some good ones but some probably shouldn't be managers at all. If you can keep yourself together how are you suppose to run a district.

Sorry to hear and hope you got a good severance package including the DNA paid COBRA. It was terrible timing to announce it right before the LV NSM. Lucentis franchise has been under a lot of pressure and Onc may not be too far behind when the biosimilar Herceptin and Avastin from the big pharmas including Amgen come out in 2018. Thus the Onc peeps jumping into the MS bandwagon.

Have your old admin or ex-colleague go and take a photo of the "Good Decision Making" poster on the B82 corner conf room on the penthouse training floor facing the bay (northeast view). There are 3 bullets under frame, make and execute.

Good Luck and Hang in there!

Because your company is not putting out the entire picture. There are also many malignancies, more than Serono's pill. I didn't apply. I'm reading for pure entertainment

Quit whining girl. Be thankful that you were given a chance for an in-person interview even if in the seat filler capacity!

It was huge undertaking to get the DNA interviwers lined-up and thus the Onc peeps interviewed you. You better be hot looking as DNA is looking out for white chick as gays, lesbians, blacks, hispanics, asian (even if smells like ripe kimchi) and hot young white chicks (no trailer park trashes or older milfs). White male candidate's chance diminished greatly.

Why do people put up these lies????? I just want you to know that you're an awful person to try and get people going for these jobs upset. Everything you said were complete lies. Also, there are no roommates. You would have had your own room you asshole.
 












I have to agree. Why do people have to be such jerks. There isn't a believable post on here. Obviously no fucking company would assign a room with a complete strangers in an interview situation. Can you imagine the potential lawsuits for that? All these posters are really lousy jerks. My advice to anyone interviewing is to avoid reading any of these threads because none of the posts are true. More likely, they are all posts from idiots that were passed on. Genentech is a professional company and the interviewing process is highly professional and none of the things anyone posted is accurate at all.
