      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Novartis (Cambridge, MA) in Jan 2012

      Interview

      Began the day presenting academic scientific experience. Rest of the day consisted of 1:1 interviews with employees at various levels (above, across, below). Had lunch at a local restaurant with a group of people from the site. Interacted with potential colleagues within the function I was applying for. Heard back within one week with an offer.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Tell us a time you disagreed with your academic advisor and how you approached that situation.
