Derm Expansion

Anyone have any insight on what the second interview may entail? With the same manager as first. A recruiter isn’t really involved, just a scheduler.

I have a 2nd (and I believe a final) interview on Tuesday with 2 regional managers. My potential DM said to be prepared to discuss how I would manage the territory.

Start date is March 1st

Out of curiosity, do you have derm experience? Also did you have a strong internal referral? Like a potential counterpart referring you on?
 




















Which states (other than TX) have started interviewing?
I interviewed before the holiday and was told that the next interview timeline would vary by states. (Midwest last because of many states still being closed and access minimal). I was told I was moving forward, but haven’t heard anything yet so far since the holidays. Best of luck!

Thank you. Continued good luck to you!

Yea 3 years derm experience. And yes, I had 2 internal referrals. Plus I know the hiring manager. He was the one who told me about this expansion back in April

And in response to the other comment: yea, just like any other pharma interview
 




















Does anyone know realistic salary expectations? Currently at 140k with 40k bonus. I’m not sure this is worth it. After they hire the derm sales team there will be 5 reps calling on one specialty. GSK, Amgen have similar setup and WAY TOO MANY and docs can’t stand them.
