      Purchasing Summer Placement Interview

      19 Aug 2012
      Anonymous interview candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at GSK (London, England) in Mar 2012

      Interview

      Initial online application, included several 250 word answers to questions about me, my skills and their relation to the healthcare industry. I was abroad at the time of the interview so it was conducted via Skype. It was good of them to accommodate this need. I was invited to an assessment day but I was unable to attend due to being abroad and that was the end of my application process.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      The most difficult questions in the interview revolved around thinking about previous situations in which I thought I had been successful and I was asked to consider what I would have done differently to have been even more successful. For instance if I had been asked to think of an example where you led a team to complete a task, the follow up question would be what could you have done differently to complete the task more efficiently?
