Recruiter told me 'open-ended' since Iroko has never had a sales force before. I hate to say the word 'rollover', but that's what was indicated.

LOL. You will be selling really expensive versions of generic and OTC products. Their only selling point will be a lower dose and maybe slightly low AE's, but no doctor has any issue with the cheaper products to start with. Most Dr's are going to look at you as a joke when you tell them what you have. Look at the other contracts that have done the same thing. I don't think any of them have made it past 9 months. Your chances are much better to get laid off than to be rolled over.
 












Does anyone know what the drug is exactly?? Price? Formulary status? Stocking? Why would Ventiv go through all the trouble for a drug that is sure to fail, so maybe it has a good chance to succeed??
 












What the hell is wrong with you people??? If you do not like the thought of selling this product or the way the interviews are conducted, simply walk away - go on to find something else. Me, I am just glad to have the opportunity to get to work. Understand that this will be a challanging position, if you are not up for the challange, get lost and go work for McDonalds or some other job that more fits your lazy, hand me everything on a platter for nothing in return, attitude.
 






Phone interviews have started for sales rep positions. I was told the final candidates need to be submitted to the newly hired DMs by the end of the 2nd week in August. Approval should be complete by October 15th of the product, hopefully. It is worth a listen; newly improved doclofenac but beats where I am now.

Base salary is rumored to he in the mid 60s to mid 70s.
 






Won't be an easy sell, or a glamorous position by any means.. These are not "pain mgmt" products, and they'll have difficulty attracting true pain sales reps at these salaries.. Diclo is voltaren ( think voltaren gel, which is compounded by 100+ pharmacies across the country)Primary care, and a very difficult sell in primary care along with indo, which is nothing more than a fancy aspirin.. Approvals should not be a problem - coverage will be next to impossible, and $0 copay cards are a definite must. Good luck to all.. New DMs are still actively looking. This is primary care - at best.
 
























After doing the I interview, it is definitely worth talking to them a bit more. First, a phone screen. Secondly , a phone interview with manager. Mid September, face to face interviews begin. ( This is a multi-step process). Hire date after approval. Then start date of mid November. Away Training is 2 weeks in early December. Off the week of Christmas and launch first of January with launch meeting first week in February. Hope this helps.

Very sorry for anyone in the southeast they made a bad hire who was a reject now he's grabbing straws to take any gob he could get.... Doom & gloom I ended my phone interview immediately when I heard the name.
