Behavioral Technical
In 2022, I interviewed with 5-6 people and it all went great, but then they had a hiring pause for all NA roles. In early 2023, the same role was posted, so I reached out to my contacts to see if there was still interest. After a lot of emails trying to find who was handling the role now, they set up a call with me... only for the person to tell me in about 3 minutes that there was no interest in me for the role anymore. Honestly, an email would have done fine, and not raising my expectations over nothing.

Behavioral Technical
Teva's interview process is quite lengthy, involving 8 rounds. They tend to be very slow in their decision-making, taking 2-3 months post-interviews and then an unlimited amount of time after initial screening. Communication from HR or senior management regarding updates is minimal, leading to extended waiting periods for candidates.
Confirmed questions2 questions
- What generic questions were asked?
- Were there 8-9 rounds with different people asking the same things?

Behavioral Technical Case Presentation
Be ready - it is a very long process which takes a lot of time and includes many different steps. Besides that, the process is quite demanding and professional. First contact - they actively contact skilled candidates (Glassdoor and other sources) but you can also apply using their website. Interviews - one should expect to have several interviews, usually it starts with a phone interview and then a couple of professional interviews. The difficulty differs between one to another and it is probably up to the person who interviews you, the position you apply for, etc.. Panels / assessment centers - unlike regular panels/assessment centers, for this type of position they might send you to a very long and intensive day at an external center which is focused on managerial skills - there is no much to prepare, but expect it to be quite difficult and challenging. Negotiations - they usually ask you for your expectations a couple of times during the process, probably to make sure not to waste your or their time (they might even ask you during the first phone interview). Overall impression - challenging, quite professional but too long and bureaucratic.
