Good environment, Indy is a cool city

What I wish was different

First time being in a job environment is different. Wish they just shortened the internship so it wasn't so much dead time.

Advice

Act like you belong, they want to know what you can do as a scientist . Take ownership of the project and step up and say what's on your mind.

Pharmaceutical Sales Representative Intern

May - August 2018 • Charlotte, NC

What I liked

My internship with Lilly offered incredible hands-on experience that was unmatched by any other internships I pursued. I had the opportunity to go to corporate for sales training, work closely with mentors on my sales team, and was encouraged to set goals that allowed me to work at my full potential. With the Lilly internship, I also had the privilege of working with and learning from doctors and other staff in primary care offices. This allowed me to gain real-world pharmaceutical sales experience and learn from all aspects of the industry.

Advice

I would advise applicants that this is a rigorous program. Applicants should expect to invest a lot of time and effort, as the internship offers so many opportunities to learn and grow as a young professional. The more interns are willing to put into the experience, the more they will gain. Be prepared to actively participate, think outside the box, and set challenging goals for yourself!

What I liked

I loved my internship at Lilly. I enjoyed the plethora of opportunities I was given to learn, network with other interns and employees at multiple levels, and provide meaningful work through the summer project I was given.

What I wish was different

I received a lot of constructive feedback at the end of my internship, but I would have liked to have more throughout my experience.

Half of this internship is networking within a large company. Put yourself out there and don't be afraid to ask questions and learn from others!

Quality Assurance Summer Replacement Student

June - August 2018 • Branchburg, NJ

What I liked

I was given the chance to work for the quality assurance team to ensure that pharmaceutical ingredients met regulatory standards. This opportunity gave me hands-on experience with state-of-the-art laboratory techniques and methods, as well as experience in organizing and analyzing laboratory data.

What I wish was different

I wish I would have had the chance to experience more areas of the company, not only at their Branchburg headquarters, but also in their research labs in Indianapolis and their other product manufacturing sites around the world.

Advice

Being from the midwestern United States, this job really took me out of my comfort zone both mentally and geographically. I think taking away my safety net really allowed me to fully engage myself in this new area and new employment. I would encourage anyone else to try the same.

What I liked

What I wish was different

Advice

Learn as much as you can from Lilly! Everyone I met was willing to sit down and talk about their position, career at Lilly, how different processes work, or anything else you are interested in !
