Testimonials

Listen to what our alumni and current candidates have to say about CRDP
"Being in CRDP has given me the chance to work across a varied set of therapeutic areas and commercial functions in a short period of time. In just two years, I’ve sold to four different customer types and have worked internally across five teams - in addition to taking active roles on smaller cross-functional teams like Cultures & Values. My Access rotation provided a broad understanding of the strategies and decisions needed to ensure patient access to our medicines. Now, I'm excited for my final rotation in Marketing, focusing on a launch brand! ”

“I have found my CRDP experience to be incredibly enriching and valuable! I have been able to gain experience across multiple disease areas and functions, while also developing the skills needed to succeed at Genentech. Through my sales rotation I have learned how our commercial strategies are executed by the field and how they impact our customers. During my access rotation I have been able to better understand the complex dynamics of ensuring patient access to our medicines, while working cross-functionally to develop and execute contracting strategies. Now I am excited for my final rotation in Marketing!”
