   Interview

   A very long, disorganized and unprofessional interview process. Was ongoing for months with little to no communication in between being interviewed by at least 6 people and jumping through hoops. Also, did not speak to HR once so in the back of my mind was wondering how serious the search to fill the position really was.
   
   A few of the interviewers made comments that came off as questioning if I was qualified for the role. The job required 1-2 years of outside sales experience, vetmed experience a plus, and openness to grow the territory with extensive traveling, which I very much surpassed and accepted. Not sure if they need to update the job requirement or if this is a tactical move? Why bother having all the interviews if you don’t think I have a history of proven success to do the job?
   
   After the process, the word I would use to describe the company culture is arrogant. Was really taken aback by the excuses for the lapse in interviews being that they were “crazy busy”. Everyone especially during Covid in the vetmed world is busy… and for being so cocky about the services they provide and how lucrative the position could be, not a single person could speak to a sales goal or strategy or where they wanted to be next year or 5 years from now.
   
   The company provides a great service and I think was built on good intention and innovation for an antiquated industry, so it was disappointing to see how disconnected some of the interviewers were.
   
   Definitely would not recommend anyone in the field to apply.
