I applied online. I interviewed at Eli Lilly and Company (Indianapolis, IN) in May 2015
Interview
I applied online and was contacted by phone to set up a phone interview with a hiring manager after 4 weeks. It was a friendly interview. They asked very basic questions about me and the research I had done. Told I would be contacted after 2 weeks but I got no response to my email even after 1 month.

Interview
After applying for the position, you are require to taking and passing a personality assessment test to be considered for an interview. A week or two later, I received call to set up a phone screen. The phone screen was pretty standard- "Why are leaving your current job?" "Why lilly?" "Tell me about a time when..." After the phone screen, it was about a week before the face-to-face interview. The face-to-face interview was also pretty standard in terms of sales interview questions. I interviewed with two district managers and a specialty rep. A week after the face-to-face interview, I received a call from the recruiter saying they hired an internal candidate but wanted to keep in touch for future opportunities.
