I applied in-person. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at GSK (Philadelphia, PA) in Dec 2015
Interview
Overall, this was one of the most stressful interviews I've been on. Interviewers didn't like that my presentation focused on literature related to my current research and not my current research. Sorry, but I will not violate my CDA. Lunch was also a 3:1 interview. Please, give me a chance to eat and relax.
Hirevue interview, with a set of questions to prerecord answers to, such as team work and employment history, it wasn’t the nicest process to go through as there was little feedback or any ability to speak to a real person

Normal big Pharma interview schedule with presentation and 1:2 interviews. Competent group with good conversation and discussion. No complaints from the interview process, the hiring manager, or the interview team.
