I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at BD (Vernon Hills, IL) in May 2024
Interview
The interviewees were very friendly and I learned alot interviewing with them. It always better to ask them questions to make it like an actual conversation. It was the second interview so it was a panel interview with two other people.

Interview
I applied for the Development Program for the Inside Sales Role.
Started with an interview with Regional Sales Managers, who wanted me to continue with a panel/presentation interview. Regional Sales Managers gave me a few names of current employees who can help me prep for the next round of interviews. None of the employees answered back, so I was expected to present and prep on my own without a bit of guidance. Panel interview was okay, pretty basic/behavioral questions asked after. I sent a follow up email still expressing interest and requested some feedback. Hiring managers went ghost. Not even a rejection email. For a large and successful company, you would at least expect them to be decent and email back stating that they will not be moving forward with the application. This creates a sense of distrust in the hiring process of the company and a lack of professionalism. Being in sales requires one to be communicative. Kind of ironic they lack to inform and communicate.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me a bit of your background. What does your day-to-day in your job look like? (If coming from sales background). What is a challenge you faced recently and how did you overcome it? Why BD?
