I applied online. I interviewed at Takeda Pharmaceuticals (Boston, MA) in Jan 2024
Interview
Very disturbing experience. Invited for a 3-opening position interview, interviewed by 6 scientists and asked a ton of questions for an internship candidate. Turned out to cancel the position after 1 month.

Question 1
A lot of technical questions about my previous research.
It was during the pandemic, so the interview consisted of a resume review and phone interview with the manager of my team. Recommend researching the role beforehand and applying with referral.

Interview
I talked to the hiring manager once for 30 minutes. He asked me to describe my previous research that related to the project he described. He asked me to show him some slides if I had them ready, but didn't mention I should have this ready in any emails leading up to the interview.
