Pharmaceutical Question:
Will a DWI hurt my chances of being hired as a pharmaceutical rep?
Answer:
Yes.
It used to be if you have a DWI on your record you were toast. However sometimes exceptions are made on a case-by-case basis. There is no way of predicting if they will make an exception in your case.
There are instances where people who got DWI's in their teens and have clean records for many years have got hired. Also, sometimes one of the smaller companies will tolerate a DWI for an outstanding candidate.
