I started by applying online through AstraZeneca’s career portal. I submitted my resume and a cover letter tailored to the job description. Within a couple of weeks, I got an email from a recruiter saying that they wanted to move forward with my application. 2. Initial Screening Next, I had a phone interview with the recruiter. It was about 30 minutes long, and we went over my resume, my experience, and why I was interested in the position at AstraZeneca. The recruiter also gave me a brief overview of the role and the company culture. 3. Assessment Tests After the phone screen, I was asked to complete a series of online assessments. These included cognitive ability tests, like logical reasoning and numerical ability. There were also psychometric tests that aimed to evaluate my personality traits and how I might fit into the team and company culture.
