I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Eli Lilly and Company
Interview
I was recruited after Eli Lilly reps saw me compete at a sales competition. They were impressed with my sales skills and asked if I would sign up for an initial sales intern interview.
During the first interview, I felt welcomed and comfortable with the reps. It was very conversational, and they asked me behavioral questions as well as questions related to my resume.
I made it through the first interview and then was invited to a very nice dinner. Then, I completed the final interview where more questions were asked. Ultimately I was not given the internship. I was later told by a different rep that I wasn't chosen because "my resume seemed unprofessional" and "I didn't clique with the reps."
Make sure to have a clean, polished, professional resume! I thought mine was fine as I had it reviewed by the career center at my university.

Used a “Star” based interview format; situation, task, action, results. Short interview time, very kind two person panel. Questions were asked about various topics such as problem solving, experience with customers, experience working in teams, etc.
Phone interview in person interview final round. Phone interview had fairly general questions. In person was with a group, which was an interesting experience. Hopefully this gets me to 30 words.
