I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Sanofi (Paris) in Aug 2019
Interview
The process took 3 month. Not very easy most of the process is at phone or zoom. I had to mixe between french and english. First I applied after answer question by video on my laptop without an interlocutor. After a call with HR, after one with the manager another one with HR another one with manager ...
It was a very long process. The time from the initial recruiter call to the offer was just over three months with long stretches of silence. I had an issue with the recruiter not relaying important information to the hiring manager, which subsequently painted me in a negative light when meeting with the manager. I interviewed virtually and in person at the office. The only detractor to the experience is the recruiting process. Everyone I interviewed with was very nice.

The first round is with HR, the second round with 5 managers which is quite overwhelming. It's not too difficult but it's a long interview with a lot of questions from all 5 managers (hiring manager, dotted lines, indirect managers...)
