Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Most challenging experience in undergraduate studies.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Novartis (Basilea) in Apr 2018
Interview
Three interviews. The interviews with HR and the current manager went well. They asked questions and we're engaged in the interview process. Third interview with department head; was on his phone throughout the interview, asked three questions and did not listen to my responses. When I asked questions, they were never answered. He even forgot my name as he left. A 30 minute interview that lasted 10 minutes. The guy obviously did not want to be there. Just a terrible experience.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Novartis (Pekín, Pekín) in Mar 2013
Interview
The interview process just goes as same as other classic interviews. The staffing center firstly screen the CV and reach to short list candidate for a tele/ face-2-face interview. The 2nd round is to meet the prospectus line manager together with division HRBP. Then the final round is to meet the divisional GM, which depends on which level you interview.
