I applied through university. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at BD (Franklin Lakes, NJ) in Apr 2014
Interview
The interview was just a one-off phone interview, no phyisical interview or any other assessment. The interviewer mainly ask about interests. I was asked about the kind of relevant modules and knowledge learnt in school also. We chatted about what kind of opportunities they have, the kind of interns they have and what experience I can expect from the internship opportunity.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at BD in Nov 2025
Interview
Applied on career portal, HR reached out in 1-2 week, only one interview with hiring manager arranged the next week. Waiting for offer and contract for 1 month. Quite smooth, but overall, the timing can be long.
Chat with HR screener, then with intern / co-op manager, mostly behavioral questions, on Microsoft teams. Asked about previous projects, resume, skills, etc. Interviewer was friendly, personable, and gave insight on daily intern duties.
Medium length, and was not the worst interview I've ever been in. Questions were not as bad as I thought, and it was a video interview so not as stressful as in person ones.
