I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Takeda Pharmaceuticals (Chicago, IL) in Mar 2013

Interview

The Interview Process was very long. I think I applied for a job in January and I had to fill out another form in February. Had a phone interview in March and never heard back from the company so obviously I didn't get the internship.
