I applied through college or university. I interviewed at AstraZeneca

Pretty basic interview, 30 mins with behavioural Qs. Answer in STAR format. 2 managers were present for the interview, they were normal people. The interview was for a co-op program.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time where you overcame a stressful situation.
The interview was quick and the interviewer was friendly. Half the time was spent asking me questions, the other half I asked about the company/position. I could tell the interviewer was very conscious of the time and spent exactly 15 mins asking about me before allowing 15 mins for my questions. However, ended very abruptly.
Very long process. Multiple interviews. It took about 6 months from the first screening interview to the final decision. First rounds were with HR and final rounds were with leadership. It would be better if decisions could be made more quickly.
