Started with an employee referral. Received a phone call to schedule a phone interview about a week later. Had the phone interview the next week, interview was by two associate directors in the Statistical Programming department including the manager I would report to. I received an offer for a contractor possition a week later and accepted, worked as a contractor for eight months and applied to an open full time position. Two weeks later I came in to the office for six face to face interviews including ADs from Statistical Programming, Data Management, and Statistics and the director of Statistical Programming.

I interviewed at Boehringer Ingelheim (Ridgefield, CT)
Interview
Statistical programming Department is mostly Chinese it seems and I think they were trying to give preference to Chinese.. (Three associate directors interviewing me were Chinese - one of them listed as hiring manager ) .. at least that's how I felt. I answered everything and they did not inform me anything. I had to call them several times after a month to know the outcome. It looks like they were not sure what to do. Later on saw the job ads posted as "contracter" needed. Unprofessional . At least inform the candidate the outcome as soon as you can please !
