Eli Lilly and Company Interview Questions

Application

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Eli Lilly and Company (Houston, TX) in May 2018.

Interview

Applied online. Passed the online screening test. 2 weeks later I finally got a call from a third-party recruiting company. Did a phone interview with a very pleasant gentleman, it lasted maybe 30 minutes. He told me he would definitely be passing me on to the next step, and would be hearing from HR very soon.

A week passed and I got another call, from the same third-party company but a different recruiter who was very nice as well. She asked me if I had any questions regarding the job, training, etc. She gave me very precise timeline for the interviewing and training process should I be hired for the position, as well as the products I would be dealing with. Both recruiters were also very kind by giving me advice on how to rock the interview and suggested I think up some answers to STAR questions, etc. Asked to schedule an in-person interview for the following week. They worked with my schedule which was much appreciated!

The actual interview was great. I was interviewed by 2 District Managers who were very professional and the whole process really felt more like a conversation. I did a lot of research about the hiring process at Eli Lilly and was told by a friend who works there that one of the specific managers would be very tough, but never did I feel like this was the case- the conversation was very fluid and they gave me a chance to ask them questions at the end of the interview, which was awesome because I had some additional personal insight to the company.

I was told that I would be hearing from them in a week or two, so that is what I am doing right now.

A day after the interview I was sent an e-mail with a form in which I can claim reimbursement for any expenses accumulated in order to get to the interview, which was very considerate of the company.

Interview

It was with two people, one manager and one scientist. Questions were all behavioral, usually having to do with past situations in internships/other technical roles. Somewhat challenging because many of the questions overlapped, make sure to have several stories ready.

I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Eli Lilly and Company in March 2018.

Interview

The interview process is simple and straightforward. You begin by taking an online assessment that, if you don't pass, will get you passed up for the phone screen. The phone screen went on for about 20 minutes before being asked to attend a formal interview. One panel interview with DMs and then one final interview with one DM. If you are moved to the final, you more than likely will get an offer.

Interview

BEWARE!! MASSIVE SCAM!!

Somebody is scamming people using this company's name, info, etc... Person that was spoken to claimed to be President of the company.

First off, NO MAJOR PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANY CEO OR PRESIDENT WOULD EVER DIRECTLY CONTACT A PEE-ON CUSTOMER REP. EMPLOYEE FOR A POTENTIAL POSITION.. REALLY?! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!!?

Online interview, no in person or f2f. Shortlisted resumes and job candidates was a promise of having "superior qualities and desired traits" among other "candidates". Mentioned a check stipend to purchase "office products" and be deposited into your account to work from home.

Thank God it dawned on me before any very personal info was given out like account #s, social security, etc...

Upper levels of this company need to comb the lower levels and find out what's going on. It's sick that some people have fallen victim to this. Hopefully this is a legit company and isn't the actual reason behind the scam!

First round interview on skype, second round at their campus
The first one was on skype because potential full time offer would be in Spain (my home country). I had two 45 min interviews, one with HR and one with the COO. Second round included a vist to their campus to meet many different exmployees and senior executives. Overall it was a great experience and increased my interest in working there.
