Takeda pharmaceuticals north america Sales Representative Interview Questions & Reviews

Interviewed Jul 2009 (took 1 week)

The interview was very informal. They wanted to know who I really was and not who I was trying to present myself as. They stressed the importance of being real and communication. They focused on the compnay culture of performance, collaboration, leadership, people and connections. They wanted to know what each of those meant to me. The interviewers did not wear suit jackets to keep it more relaxed for the initial interview. They brought me back later that day for a second interview since I had traveled a distance. Then for my third interview I was flown to the Regional office to meet with the Regional manager. She was also very relaxed and it was very conversational. She wanted to know my long-term goals. I presented a power point slideshow which highlighted why I was a choice. It was geared toward how my principles mirrored those of Takeda and I got the job.
