First round, phone interview, robot. First they asked me to fill a form, asking basic background information and then telephone record with three questions. Phone interview only ask for simple behaviour questions.

I interviewed at Boehringer Ingelheim (Ridgefield, CT)
Interview
Statistical programming Department is mostly Chinese it seems and I think they were trying to give preference to Chinese.. (Three associate directors interviewing me were Chinese - one of them listed as hiring manager ) .. at least that's how I felt. I answered everything and they did not inform me anything. I had to call them several times after a month to know the outcome. It looks like they were not sure what to do. Later on saw the job ads posted as "contracter" needed. Unprofessional . At least inform the candidate the outcome as soon as you can please !
