I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Boehringer Ingelheim (Ridgefield, CT)
Interview
Interview process included the following steps:
- Initial phone screen with recruiter
- Phone screen with hiring manager
- Panel interview with several team members
- Final conversation with hiring manager
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Boehringer Ingelheim (Washington, DC) in Oct 2024
Interview
I suspect the interview process was ultimately 3-4 rounds. I made it through the first two - one with HR and one with the direct supervisor for the position. My review is focused on the HR recruiter I engaged with - who was incredibly unprofessional. I was tempted to list his name here, but that seems inappropriate. After two interviews, he essentially ghosted me - behavior I'd expect of a twenty-something on a dating site. This was a mid-senior level position for which I was well qualified, hence the two interviews. After the second interview, I received no additional communication from BI HR - I sent a thank you note two days after the interview, a follow-up e-mail ten days later, and left voicemail for the HR staffer an additional week later. For nearly a month, no response. I finally tracked down the recruiter roughly four weeks after my second interview. His response? "We moved forward with our preferred candidate". Which is perfectly fine. What's not fine is leaving a qualified candidate in the dark for weeks after two interviews. Can't imagine I'll consider future opportunities at BI after this experience. Totally unprofessional.

Interview
Interviews are fairly straight forward, but the hiring process takes time, almost 3 months in my case. I interviewed with an HR representative, then my immediate manager, then 4 additional people as a panel that are higher than my manager.
