The process took 3 days. I interviewed at MSDSonline (Chicago, IL) in Jun 2015
Interview
Briefly had a very basic run of the mill phone interview/screening. Then you they have you come in for the in person interview. I had two sets of three people interview me, other people had three sets of two people. The first group will have your potential team leader along with the director.

I applied online. I interviewed at MSDSonline (Chicago, IL) in Jul 2015
Interview
Very simple. One round of phone interviews, and then a back to back in-person interview to see if you had the drive of a salesperson. A lot of what they are looking for is former athletes who have that type of drive.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at MSDSonline (Chicago, IL) in May 2015
Interview
Very quick 2 week process from start to finish. One quick on the phone interview where they screen your phone etiquette followed by in location interview. Starts off with shadowing of sales team member then interview with 3-5 sales team managers. Then a second round that same day of interviewers. Seems a bit much, however it is to your benefit all you have to really do is impress one or two well enough so that they can sway the panel to your favor. Very friendly interview process too.
