I applied online. I interviewed at AstraZeneca in Nov 2025
Interview
Completed a series of questions assessing your behaviours and questions assessing ability. Then invited to assessment centre where completed an introduction exercise in group, a values and behaviours assessment on their core values and a technical interview on drug development process.
The process was entirely online, and the technical interview - which they said not to prepare for - felt pressurised and very difficult to understand questions without preparation. The values interview was less stressful but significantly shorter.
