I interviewed at Fujifilm Diosynth Biotechnologies (Billingham, England)
Interview
Applied for the position through a recruitment agency. After 4+ weeks I was contacted to reveal I had been shortlisted for an interview. The interview took the form of an assessment day in which a brief presentation was followed by 5 'speed-dating' style interviews lasting 10 minutes each. One behavioural question was asked by each interviewer with follow up questions. After the interview a team-building exercise was performed by all interviewees present followed by a tour of the facility.

Question 1
The most unexpected part was the team building exercise which was not mentioned by the recruitment agency (I suspect that this is the fault of the recruitment agency not Fujifilm).

Interview
The interview involved a group exercise, one-to-one questions and a chemistry/maths problem test. The people who were interviewing us were very kind. During the group exercise, we worked in a group of four to solve an exercise. During the one-to-one question session, they asked me questions related to myself as well as the job I was applying to.
