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.
