I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at The Medicines Company (Cleveland, OH) in May 2015
Interview
Interview was tough but was a very relaxed feeling. It developed more into a conversation than just being drilled with questions. My initial interview was with the hiring manager and another CSM in the territory. The interview lasted about an hour and a half with an opportunity for me to ask question after. This was the first step of the interview and the next step would be to fly to their home office for a 5 person panel interview in which they stressed would be very challenging.
