      Director Interview

      Mar 15, 2021
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at AstraZeneca in Oct 2020

      Interview

      The interview process involved a 30 minute HR interview, a 60 minute interview with a team member, and 5 1-hour long interviews with people from a variety of departments. Throughout the process, my time was considered less valuable than theirs. I was not asked for my available time for scheduling interviews, I was sent times and expected to change my schedule for theirs. There were several changes in the interview times, some of which were very last minute. One interviewer didn't turn up for the scheduled interview. After the final interview, there was complete silence for weeks. When I inquired about the outcome, I was sent an automated response. After spending more than 6 hours talking to interviewers, candidates deserve more than an email. Treating candidates in this manor is disrespectful.

      Interview questions [2]

      Question 1

      Why did I leave previous jobs (ran through my entire resumé asking the same question)?

      Question 2

      There were four rounds of interviews: HR, hiring manager and manager to whom there is a dotted line, hiring manager’s boss, hiring manager’s boss’s boss. HR was fairly timely in sharing updates.
