I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at GSK (Brentford, England) in Feb 2017
Interview
Very rigid situational questions, leaving little room for common sense exchange.
This is probably a pointer to an equally rigid corporate ethos in the company as a whole.
One interviewer did let slip that she had been off work for stress, which was a welcome human interjection.
For the presentation to panel, you basically have to make as much noise as possible - it is important to say something whatever it is.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Name a situation where xxx happened? What did you do? What was the outcome?
The application form consists of 'motivation questions’ or competency questions, which need to be addressed fully, with responses provided in around 300 words. The competency questions typically include things such as your interest in working for the company and your career motivation. To answer this set of questions properly, you will need to carry out some research. Start by thinking about what specifically attracted you to apply for a job with GSK. Perhaps it is the brands that they work with, the possibilities of international job opportunities, or their commitment to research and development.
