Declined offer

Positive experience

Easy interview

Application

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Takeda Pharmaceuticals in Aug 2010

Interview

it is pretty standard interview procedure with many 1:1 meetings and a seminar. 1:1 meetings happened in a conference room and ran pretty smoothly. The seminar was set up promptly. The meeting with HR was a sale's pitch. The meeting with hiring manager was at the end of the day and was a good place to ask questions and address concerns.
