I applied in-person. I interviewed at GSK (Upper Providence, PA) in Mar 2022
Interview
It is a wonderful process. It is a very inclusive process. Managers and scientists are open. It makes it a comfortable environment when interviewing. The questions are about accountability, culture, people and quality. This is key when working for a company. It is how about the quality of the products they make, is it patient focus and are their people developing them happy/ good work-life balance. I found the experience enlightening and inspiring.

Question 1
Introduce yourself, what are strengths, how does your experience fit this role and possible challenges
Screening interview with HR then 45 min phone interview followed by full day onsite interview. Everyone was very nice and the technical questions were limited to your own research. Overall a pleasant experience.

Question 1
What was your favorite paper that you read in recent literature and why?
Initial chat with a recruiter with standard procedure, mostly talking about the "logistics" of the job, e.g. salary range, location, etc. Then chat with hiring manager. After that I was invited to give a technical presentation, followed by about 6 different 1:1 or 1:2 interviews, the talk and interviews were conducted virtually. Lastly a site visit in person. Site visit included lunch and additional 1:1 conversations.
