Behavioral Technical
I went onsite for an interview and I really enjoyed my day, with 1:1 interviews with at least 10 team members. Great people, however I felt the energy was off. I was very excited about the position and showed huge enthusiasm however may be it's just current market situation I felt no one in the team (including HM) really showed any excitement and explained why I should join their team and choose to build my career with that particular team versus any other company in USA. Also the compensation is average and probably below par considering the location of the company.

Behavioral Presentation
The interview started with an HR call, followed by a hiring manager interview. Then there was a full panel interview that included a 1-hour presentation. The HR mentioned they would ask for 5 references if I was selected after the panel interview. They also said they value my time and would follow up within about 2 weeks with updates. I completed the full panel interview months ago but haven't heard back. I emailed HR to follow up, and they said they'd call, but they never did. I assume I wasn't selected, but it was unprofessional to ghost candidates.

Behavioral
The process was long and horrible. HR contact was slow and inconsistent with questionable tactics. HR would contact people I never provided and ask concerning questions. The entire interview system is entirely behavioral with everyone asking the same question over and over. The interviews took place over multiple days. Regeneron is slow and does not seem to have a grasp of what they want in the hiring process. HR will use questionable tactics to ask for employment references then ask those people if they are interested in applying for the position. The interviews are rarely technical and the people I spoke to did not seem to enjoy working there. There were also questions about how you deal with backstabbing which was concerning because it seems like the culture there.
