I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Applied Medical (Peoria, IL) in Aug 2013
Interview
After a referral from a friend, I was given a in-person interview in Peoria. The person from Applied was very professional. This then led to an interview with a zone manager, however, the usual protocol is an interview with a district manager (scheduling issue prevented this step for me). Once again, the zone manager was professional and asked the usual interview-type questions. She gave me plenty of time to think about the questions before I answered which made the process mostly stress free.
Unfortunately, I was not chosen for the position in Peoria. Applied needed someone with med sales experience (I have none). I do think they gave my resume due diligence and made an earnest effort to explore the possibility of hiring me.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Nothing too off the wall. Basic sales job questions like "can you give me an example of when you set a goal and had a set back then overcame and accomplished goal" "can you think of a time when you needed to find the decision-maker how did you reach that person" (I'm paraphrasing a little- but you get the idea)

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Applied Medical (Long Beach, CA) in Nov 2015
Interview
I mainly work with recruiters for my job applications. I have been in the industry for 22 years. Most interviews start with a phone interview then a sit down. A second interview will follow. Sometimes you'll do a field ride and final interview is with upper management.
