Interview
After submission of resume online, I was contacted by the one who turns out to be my supervisor. Only one round of phone interview to go through the resume. The pace of interview is not fast and it is a very standard interview process
Really well structured and very nice and friendly people. It wasn’t rushed and they took their time to explain to me the format of the assessment task. Their were around 3 different interview stages, one being a presentation which was around 5-10 mins.
Only 1 interview. No one contacted me to say I was rejected. I found out by looking on Workday to see I’m no longer considered. Not the worst but I would have appreciated more communication. The recruiter was very helpful though.
I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Takeda Pharmaceuticals (Cambridge, MA) in Apr 2025
Interview
2 back to back interviewers with basic behavioral and experience questions. It was pretty informal in my view, I spoke with my manager and her boss. They were very friendly and told me only 2-4 other applicants were being interviewed.
