I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at AstraZeneca (Mississauga, ON) in Sep 2015
Interview
3 rounds, first was a group panel interview focusing on skillsets, behaviours. 2nd with VP and last one with CEO. No personal references needed, but asked for employer confirmation, education check and police check. questions were mainly giving examples of situations, or solving "hypothetical" situations, issues. Relaxed atmosphere, good questions. AZ is looking to hire for talent and potential to grow with the comapny, the interview process is designed to meet this goal
interviewed for position in the US; scheduling was handled by staff in Mexico; very disorganized; HR person was not forthright when I asked basic questions; I withdrew my interest in the position due to these behaviors
