I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Abbott in Nov 2023
Interview
It was very quick from getting the recruiter email to interview to the actual interview (with a week). I met with the sales trainer first then the regional sales director and district manager. The interviews were fairly informal.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Abbott (Grand Rapids, MI) in Aug 2021
Interview
Somewhat typical interview process, applied online and got an invitation to an online interview. Once I did that, I was invited to a face to face interview with a District Sales Manager. After completing that interview, I had a separate interview with another DSM on zoom the next day. Unfortunately made it to the final two and didn’t get the position but all of the managers were incredibly insightful and great at interviewing.

Name a time when you were in a collaborative team environment and still were competitive? Which product of ours do you think would be the easiest to sell? How do you manage dialogues with multiple points of contact with multiple priorities?
