Application
I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Roche (Welwyn Garden City, England).
Interview
Applied online directly to Roche and had first round interview in Welwyn. There was nothing hard except for one person kept on putting me off from joining Roche (why are you coming here, your company is amazing) but others were reasonably friendly and amicable. No comms for two weeks and I had to chase up and learnt that my experience was not enough - this is totally silly for a director level job to ask someone to come for what seemed like an informal interview and then be turned down based on experience which they can easily gauge from my CV. Given the seniority of the role, the way HR dealt with this was totally appalling - no common courtesy to let the applicants know of the outcome and I had to chase them for it and no specific feedback was given. This is a small industry and I have no doubt I'll be in a much higher level very soon but the bad taste of Roche will remain with me.
