Question 1
How will you handle situations where you and your team max out?
The ego of this business is way ahead of its success. They are extremely narrow minded when it comes to the location of people across the country which limits their access to talent and ultimately limits the quality of people they hire. I was interviewed by hiring managers whose knowledge and skillset were, to say the least, modest, even though they had years of experience in the organisation.

Question 1
Give an example of when you implemented something new
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at AstraZeneca (Ciudad de Mexico) in Jan 2024
Interview
Fui finalista, pero el departamento de RH fue muy poco profesional. Jamás me avisaron que no había sido el candidato seleccionado. Las entrevistas fueron interesantes y aprendí de esa experiencia.

Question 1
Un escenario donde me haya enfrentado en algún conflicto en mi equipo y como lo abordé
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at AstraZeneca in Jun 2023
Interview
HR interview, hiring manager interview, writing assessment, then presentation/Q&A and panel interview for the final round. Took about a month or two from when I applied for the process to beging but then it moves pretty quickly, each step took about a week. Very nice people but a bit of a tiring process.

Question 1
Standard behaviorals but what made it difficult was the follow-up for each question. Each question had 2 follow-ups and they would nitpick each answer. Know your story well. For example, "Name a time you gave someone feedback..." "Okay so if they reacted like this say a time they didnt react that way" "Okay so if they didnt react that way how would you respond" Quickly got tiring because there was not much left to say
