I applied online. The interview process consisted of 3 phases. First a writing exercise where they asked for a resume, list of authored publications, writing sample, and a response to a specified writing assignment. This was followed by a 30 minute phone interview. Finally, an all-day site visit was conducted.

Question 1
None of the questions were particularly difficult. However, they did follow the STAR format and occasionally, different interviewers would ask you the same exact question.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Eli Lilly and Company (Indianapolis, IN) in Mar 2023
Interview
First round consisted of a quick phone call with the hiring manager. Then followed by a writing exam that was pretty straight forward. Finally, an in person round. Overall the interview process was standard and pretty fast. Ultimately didn't take the role, but it was a difficult decision for me to make.

I applied through other source. I interviewed at Eli Lilly and Company
Interview
Was brought in for a 1:1 interview after doing a writing test at home, took a writing test during the interview too, and was there all day... one interview per hour with one new person each hour. Had a break for lunch at the corporate cafeteria with a staff member so asked questions then.

Question 1
Standard intweview questions in STAR format (situation, task, action, results). Nothing tricky or unusual. Interviewers were repeating the same questions, and after a couple time of getting the same questions I said to a manager, I’ve already been askes that!
