Question 1
Explain how you’ve dealt with a difficult or challenging situation
I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Biogen (Zug) in Feb 2017
Interview
Awful, 7 interviews same questions over and over... the offered then retracted...
Very unprofessional, all of them were skpe, I had to beg and chace for feedback.
Spoke with multiple people but at the end someone else took the final decision
There were several interviews in one day with various team members. Some technical questions were asked related to the position. There was no follow-up from HR and I was given the incorrect contact person's information to find out if there were any next steps.

Question 1
In previous roles, what was a difficult situation that you faced and how did you overcome it?
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Biogen (Boston, MA) in Oct 2019
Interview
Applied through an agency for a contract position. Got a quick response, and two days later interviewed for the position. It became clear that there was a disconnect between my experience and what they were looking for. Although I was prepared to speak to one person, I ended up speaking to two. The interview proceeded like an interrogation, and by the end of it I wanted nothing to do with the individuals or the company. Most of the criteria that was supposed to be important turned out not to be.
