It was a series of short 15-30 minute interviews. They asked questions about my past work experience and how it would fit the role. I met with people from different departments like HR, Marketing, Commercial, and Market Access leaders.

Behavioral Technical

So the first step was a phone call with HR. Then I had a teleconference with the hiring manager, who actually showed up 10 minutes late. After that, I went to their headquarters for an in-person interview with five people, and each of those meetings was 30 minutes. The HR person said they'd have a decision in a few days. They seemed really keen to get the process moving, but not so much about giving me an answer. I followed up a bunch, and three weeks later, I got a generic email saying they picked someone else.

Behavioral Case

The company was really disorganized and didn't seem to care about the scheduling problems they caused. They also didn't pay for my hotel after flying me to their headquarters, telling me I was on my own. That's a first. The HR person was totally unhelpful.
