I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Takeda Pharmaceuticals in May 2017
Interview
Very unstructured. Got the feeling during the interview that the position wasn’t approved and the hiring manager just went on his own. Lots of focus on how to handle internal problems. Lots of emphasis on flow of people in and out of the company
