Standard interview process - screening interview, followed by hiring manager interview, and then individual panel interviews.
The recruiter was not very reliable. I had to reach out to her several times to ask about my status considering weeks had passed since a previous interview. I was overall disappointed. One interviewer asked why I had jumped around a lot, when it was very clear by my resume that I had longevity with three companies. The interviewer said they like to hire employees who want to become part of the Eli Lilly "family", not people who want to leave after a few years.
I had ranked Eli Lilly quite high in my job search. My overall impression is that the company is highly conservative and potentially limited in their thinking.
