Full day interview started with a 1 hr seminar and questions, followed by one-on-one 30-minute interviews with the team, including the hiring manager. Some interviews were with the Director and Executive Director.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
When required, how do you convince people in other people to do experiments and generate data for you?
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at AbbVie
Interview
A recruiter set up a phone screen directly with the manager. The manager seemed a little impatient to do this interview at the very beginning. I don't know, maybe they already had a better fill and just doing this because it's too late to cancel? Anyway, the interview questions were mostly a short list of trivial programming questions that seemed to be taken from some programming certification exam. As someone who uses this language a lot I certainly do not feel that you can gauge's someone's skills based on these few questions, nor does knowing one or two specific functions makes one a better programmer. But I guess this may be how interviews are typically like in India considering most people in this department are Indians?

I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at AbbVie (North Chicago, IL) in Jul 2019
Interview
First invitation to interview was a phone interview with hiring director which was good. The next two were onsite with another director and VP. Very nontraditional process no real questions about my background experience or knowledge. The follow-up from those interviews was over a month later. Very disappointing timeline and overall experience.
