Heard on CafePharma and seeing it firsthand: job searches in biopharma sales are taking at least 6 months now, even for experienced reps.

What happened to the days when you could jump ship in a few weeks? Is this a sign of a tighter market, more rigorous hiring processes, or just companies dragging their feet? How are you all coping with the uncertainty? Any tips for those of us in the trenches looking for our next move?.
