The Lilly Sales Internship is a unique 10 week program designed to give students “hands‑on” experience in selling Pharmaceuticals. After completing part of sales training at home, students travel to Indianapolis for a week to the Company Headquarters for additional training and to experience the Lilly corporate culture.

Interns will sell one of Lilly’s products and are integrated into District teams. Each student is assigned a mentor to assist them with territory management and selling skills. All interns are provided a company car and an I‑pad as part of the internship.
