I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Eli Lilly and Company (Indianapolis, IN) in Mar 2020
Interview
I had two interviews, one on the phone with the hiring manager and one with 2 managers in person. they asked me questions about culture, volunteerism then my experience within my past company. they want someone who has past pharma experience, so this is great to have. Also make sure you use STAR format as they are really look for this
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
what makes you want to work for lilly? Tell me about a time where you influenced someone and got your way on a project?
Initially a screening call with HR to check your experience is correct for the role. Then a competency based interview, with questions based more on previous experiences with team members and how to handle difficult situations; questions on coping with new tools and techniques.

2 -ème entretien RH
si tout va bien réception d'un mail de confirmation
The initial screening was positive & I was called for a remote interview. The HR was very prompt and professional in scheduling the interview. The interview, however, was fully centered around the behavioral questions. I answered all the questions very well without any issues. There were absolutely no technical questions asked. For some reason, I felt that they didn’t want a senior and experienced candidate, but carried through with the process regardless!
