      IT Project Manager Interview

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at GSK (Collegeville, PA) in May 2019

      Interview

      The recruitment process at GSK is broken. They have outsourced most of it and given my experiences with some of them, it appears that they are young & inexperienced, and/or do not care. While working there, I was selected for a phone screen 3 months after I had applied. (I was already working there, why do I need to be phone screened???) Passing the phone screen with flying colors, I moved on to the actual interview phase with the hiring manager which was scheduled the following week. Interview went very well; I was 1 of 2 remaining candidates. However, after the interview, I NEVER heard back from the hiring manager nor the recruiter. After multiple attempts to contact both, 6 weeks after the interview, the recruiter sent me an automated form email that stated that there were "other candidates more suited for the role". (Again, I knew I was 1 of 2 candidates remaining; there were no "other candidates".) Anyone who gets to the final interview stage, unsuccessful candidates deserve to be treated better than that. They should be not be sent a form letter that does not apply to them. At that state it's usually under 5 people, they should be sent either a personal email with feedback or given a phone call. Other roles I applied to the experience was similar, you rarely hear from the recruiter. I've have and still have roles I applied to and never informed that I was not selected for an interview, yet the process moved on and the role offered to someone with my status in Workday still stating "submitted" months after the role was offered. I will say I have come across 2 recruiters that were exceptionally good, and not surprisingly, they were not outsourced. But that is a rare occurrence. If it was ANY other service I would complain & raise issues about the process, but recruiting is a black hole, underlined with fear that if you complain, you've just blacklisted yourself and won't ever be offered a position at any given company.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at GSK (London, England) in July 2009

      Interview

      This was the first conversation with someone at the company, and #i wasnt even allowed to ask what the job role entailed, or even talk about my CV. It was a full head on techincal interview which was intimidating, and something I may not have chosed to do had I had the opportunity to discuss the role in more details to find it may not have been suitable anyway!!

      Question 1

      I was asked particularly techincal questions which unless I was in front of the screen were almost impossible

      IT Project Manager Interview

      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at GSK in June 2007

      Interview

      This was a three step process. 1) behavioral interview with hiring manager and HR 2) on site full day interview with several managers. mostly behavioral interviews testing your knowledge, experience, skills and behaviors based on the veriety of situations encountered during your past work 3) background check. On-site included 5 interviews each with different manager (other than hiring manager) who worked in different department. On-site also included interview with director and VP of the hiring group. Behavioral interviews are tough and you should really be honest about the asnwers. Don't make up the situations if you haven't encountered such situations. Also think about how would you respond to veriety of situations ahead of the interview. For example, one of the question was "tell me the situation in which your team was faced with a complex problem and how did you go about developing a solution and what was the result?"

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      tell us about a situation in which you had a team member with personal issues impacting his ability to perfom? how did you address the situation and what was the result?
