I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Roche (Basel) in Feb 2020
Interview
First a video call via Skype of around 1 hour. Then they flew me in to Basel for a face to face panel interview of 2,5h. There were a lot of typical interview questions and we went through the CV. Then there was also many situational questions, assignment and a role play exercise. Then a quick chat (30 min) with the HR team.
The approach was very respectful and personal. The company was flexible to adjust the time of the face to face interview. At the end of the interview they also showed me a bar at the top of the tower which was a nice touch.
Overall very positive experience, respectful and personal approach and they took time to write a detailed feedback and reasoning for not going forward with me.

Question 1
Provide some examples of how you handled tough feedback
I applied online. I interviewed at Roche (London, England) in Feb 2026
Interview
The initial interview was with an AI/video interview. Not ideal, you are only given 90 seconds to answer a question that would normally take 3 minutes. So it's a little bit off-putting because there is no human in the interview, so you can't read body language to know if you're going down the right path.....
Très belle experience lors de mon entretien avec Roche . Les retours ont été rapides, le processus général était bienveillant, et l’équipe était à l’écoute et disponible tout au long des entretiens.

I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Roche (Penzberg) in Aug 2025
Interview
gut and langwierig. Man hat erstmal eine Kennenlernrunde und dann Fachgespräch - alles zusammen hat es ungefähr 3h gedauert. Das Fachgespräch geht ziemlich tief und im Gespräch beteiligt sind immer Führungspersonen.
