30 minute phone interview with two managers
Then got a follow-up email from HR after about a week saying that they weren't sure if they could accommodate me as an intern but that they would try and find another area within Abbott for me to intern; got a phone call like a week or so later with an offer for a different position

I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Abbott in Oct 2015
Interview
HR was very prompt in responding and informing me. HireVue Webcam preliminary interview and hour long assessment, then had on site interview with 4 directors of retail sales - went well. Received a call a week later saying that my profile was being considered for therapeutic/pediatric sales as well. But recieved a rejection email the next week...Everyone i interacted with was very friendly and genuine, just a very competitive environment to get into.
