Interviewed for 3months before the VP closed the position due to organizational changes. One can only assume employment would have been as unpredictable. It’s takes as long to list a role and interview. Seems like a great use a resources. Expensive work.

First a phone screen by HR recruiter to review resume information; not too structured, mostly conversational. Next a phone screen with the hiring manager, similarly mostly conversational. Finally a series of 3 separate hour-long sessions (via Webex due to Covid-19) with the hiring manager and 2 senior peers who also report to the hiring manager; there was some flexibility to go off-script, but it was largely answering scripted situational interview questions. Pretty similar to the process with other large companies in the traditional mold.

Multiple interviews. It was well organized. First was with an HR person. Second was with internal stakeholders and managers at Covance. The third was with the client the position would work with exclusively. Everyone was professional and it was only phone interviews.
