hi girls, umabot ako until interview with the regional manager at GSK. masyadong maselan yung manager. Di pako nakakaupo eh napansin na kagad ash blonde hairs ko. Pa-color ko raw ng black.
anyway, start na ng training nung Monday and true, may bumabagsak pa rin sa training. 1.5 months ang training. May allowance naman pero after the training pa makukuha.

Girls advice lang ako if magaapply kayo sa mga pharmaceutical companys. Dun na kayo sa multinational never apply sa mga local companys hindi maganda dun. Pero hindi naman lahat ng local Natrapharm is okay naman, dont apply sa DYNA DRUG CORPORATION. Naku hindi dyan maganda lalo na benefits hindi maganda. Saka daig mo pa nasa isang community or organization na puro chismisan which is we all know na hindi healthy na maging working environment. Dont go to DYNA DRUG CORPORATION girls.

kelangan po bang fluent ang english mo sa interview? hehe tnx!

Notnecessarily, sis. If the interviewer asks in English, answer in English. If not, by all means, puwede mag-Tagalog. And in he real world naman kapag nasa field ka na, taglish na when you talk to the doctors.

Hi girls! Im not a medrep pero may boyfriend is. Vaccines hawak nya sa sanofi pasteur. Deployment na net week and na assign sya sa ilocos region. Im just worried. Weve been together for 6 years and this is the first time ng magkakahiwalay kami. during trainings bigira kami mgkausap, lagi sya busy. No text the whole day. Pag sa gabi, pagod na sya he cant talk. Im a medstudent. Ala akong idea sa daily activities ng medrep aside from mkkipagusap ka sa doctors.. Hindi [textspeak!] dw sya sa clinics ppnta. So at some point, di ko rin maintindihan at di ako mkarelate. Supportive [textspeak!] ako mula nung application hanggang end of training. Pero di ko kc [textspeak!] mpicture [textspeak!] daily life na gnagawa nya. Di ko pa nmmet [textspeak!] iba nyang kasama kc start palang. Im afraid baka makaapekto to sa relationship [textspeak!] pag na deploy na sya. Not to mention na mejo takot din ako dahil baka magkaroon ng affairs or what. Any tips and insights? Help!

^hindi sa dinidiscourage kita diba? But I can feel you my ex is a med rep we've been together for 4 years and sobrang daming nagbago nung naging ahente sya. true yang super busy na wala na syang masyadong time talaga. well it depends pa din naman

Do you guys consider being a med rep/sales rep a stable job? I mean maganda bang career path to? I am an accountant but I want to try field work because I sometimes I find my job boring as hell!

kho_leen · « **Reply #191 on:** April 18, 2013, 03:02:03 pm »

Personally, I dont find this industry stable. Unless you can handle extreme stress and pressure on the sales plus the lack of work/life balance.

With the merging of companies, parang walang security of tenure din.

I think this is the best industry as a start at 20's because it will help develop interpersonal skills, IQ and EQ. Then after that move na to more opportunities.

Daily activity comprises mostly of visiting doctors to make chika and to promote products, and in your bf's case, booking orders(bec hie's with vaccines). Depends on the area, pwedeng madaming travel time, from one clinic/hosp, to another. There's also the long waiting time, so you get to chat with other reps and/or docs' secretaries. There are times you have to service doctors, dine them out, join them with their
hobbies.

I think it's being in the right company at the right time, going for the ones na may line up ng bagong products

Hi guys..little help nman. I had my initial interview sa GSK nung monday. Ok naman siya. confused lang ako kelan ba nagtetext yung HR if you pass or fail the interview? Kasi as of now wala pa din text ehh friday na. Wala na ba yun?

missfragile · « **Reply #195 on:** April 27, 2013, 04:01:41 pm »

hi librobaby,

how did you apply in GSK? thanks...
if ever po follow up mo na lang sa HR, Wala naman po masamang mag follow up, kasi diba atlis dun nila malalaman na interested ka sa industry nila..

Good Luck and God bless to yoour endeavor.

kho_leen · « **Reply #196 on:** April 27, 2013, 08:02:07 pm »

Other companies would send email "thank you but..." theme.

While others, if walang communication meaning di successful.

Abt glaxo, wala ka ba kasabay na applicant na katxt mo pa? If may natanggap na kasabay mo, baka nakapili na sila. Before, gsk didnt communicate if sa mga di nila napili.
