I interviewed at Gilead Sciences (Enfield, England)
Interview
Applied online, someone from Gilead called me from a mobile number and left a voicemail. I thoroughly prepared for an interview and returned the call but no one answered so I left a message.
Over a week later they returned my call again from a mobile number, when I was in a meeting and left another message. I returned the call numerous times and the mobile was either switched off or not answered. I never heard back. Waste of time.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Gilead Sciences in Nov 2014
Interview
I interviewed twice, once with the other admins of the department and once with the hiring manager. The admins asked challenging questions, which really made me put my thinking cap on. It was a positive experience. I actually had been working at Gilead for six months as a temp, so I was very familiar with the company.
