The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Astellas
Interview
Very long. You have a phone screen with HR, then a phone screen with hiring manager, then an interview with the hiring manager, then a "panel interview" which is a series of 6 half-hour long interviews. The interviews were all virtual for me so to accommodate everyone's schedule, my panel interviews were spread over two days and they weren't consecutive (so you could have two interviews in a row, then a break for an hour and a half, then an interview, then a break, etc). Plus a lot of schedule updates/panel changes in the days leading up. The people were all great and no hard questions but the process is grueling.
It took totally 2 months but I am so happy that I got the job I want .First interview was with hiring manager and following week with panel interviews with team members
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Astellas
Interview
First - phone screen by HR
Second - video interview with hiring manager
Last - 6 more video interviews with different departments
Easy interviews (nothing technical) - just took a really long time. 6 half hour interviews on the last day would have been 3 hours if it was straight through (still a lot), but because of scheduling conflicts, with breaks it ended up lasting 4.5 hours.
