      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AbbVie (Chicago, IL) in Jan 2018

      Interview

      I got called for a phone interview that was set up by a third party contracting agency. The team members were both very friendly, and surprisingly casual. It was a little more than 30 minutes in duration, but a lot of the talk was focused on my interests, passions, and where I want to take my career. Not particularly challenging, but definitely required some thought.
