I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Takeda Pharmaceuticals in Oct 2022

Pretty typical setup for scientific interviews: conversations with hiring manager followed by schedule of seminar presentation and several one on ones with team members and managers over a couple days (virtual). Essentially ghosted me after all of these meetings and interviews which is unprofessional.
