I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Novo Nordisk in Nov 2021
Interview
First the HR interview on technological background. Then the manager interview, coding interview, data science knowledge interview, and on-site presentation. It took 3 months and during the time they ignored your inquiries on the progress. Very unpleasant experience.

I applied online. I interviewed at Novo Nordisk (London, England)
Interview
Very fun and mainly looking for cultural fit. Some difficult technical questions too. 4 rounds in total including HR screening, motivation interview with hiring manager, technical interview, and competency interview
I interviewed at Novo Nordisk (Copenhagen, Capital Region)
Interview
Culture fit, take home task, IQ test, personality test.
I was given the wrong instructions about the duration of my presentation for the take home task. Pretty chaotic.
Then I did an IQ and personality test. Felt a little combative, being asked about why I failed something in the IQ test and about whether I am diplomatic. Right after that takedown, they wanted to discuss salary expectations. Pretty cheap.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Novo Nordisk (Copenhagen, Capital Region) in Apr 2024
Interview
It was a very cool and flexible process. The people were kind and funny, and it gave me a sense that there is flexibility to negotiate on salary.I found it much more rewarding than all the interviews I had so far in academia for assistant professorship positions or post docs.
