The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Pfizer (Groton, CT) in May 2024
Interview
The interview process is very smooth and the hiring manager kindly set up 1:1 meeting to allow me asking questions related to the on-site interview, and he also shared with me information about the panelists so that I can prepare better. The final interview was very tough since they asked many questions beyond my research to see what I thought in different future scenarios.
