I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at AbbVie (Detroit, MI)
Interview
Be prepared to give real life examples of how you star : situation, Task, Action, Result. The more examples you can give with details the better. Think about how you handle a difficult situation, what transpired, what actions did you take, what were the results?
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Give me an example of a situation you found yourself in with a manager where you did not agree with their coaching.
I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at AbbVie
Interview
Long process, very organized and professional. 1st phone screen with recruiter. 2nd Video interview with hiring manager. 3rd interview with hiring manager and another dsm. 4th in person with the regional director and the hiring manager. fairly straight forward process. a lot of star questions. A lot of interviews to go through to not get hired. I don’t know why candidates do the interview with the regional unless they are getting hired.
More behavioural. Be yourself, don’t go off a script. Culture is very important at the company, so must be a team player and willing to help others. Authenticity and work ethics is huge.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at AbbVie in Sept 2025
Interview
I spoke with the hiring manager, who recently transitioned into sales leadership after primarily building her career in marketing at AbbVie. While she brings strong company alignment and a positive outlook, she has almost no direct sales experience. Her coaching and management style will likely be closely aligned with corporate training and guidance. She came across as personable and professional. Overall, this role could be a strong fit for someone earlier in their career who would benefit from structured guidance and company-driven development.
