Initial interview was conducted by HR, which was about a 30 minute interview going over your skills and experience in high level. Hiring manager reached out directly after ~2-3 weeks of time and had a ~1 hr interview via Teams.

I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Pfizer (Chennai) in Jan 2022
Interview
The process was unnecessarily lengthy and entailed a long wait. Multiple interviewers asked almost the same questions, which was a complete time waste. Otherwise, they supported me very well during the entire interview process.

The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Pfizer (Groton, CT) in May 2024
Interview
The interview process is very smooth and the hiring manager kindly set up 1:1 meeting to allow me asking questions related to the on-site interview, and he also shared with me information about the panelists so that I can prepare better. The final interview was very tough since they asked many questions beyond my research to see what I thought in different future scenarios.

Question 1
They did not ask any behavior question. All of them are technical-driven.
