I applied online. I interviewed at Pfizer (Cork) in Oct 2017
Interview
Applied online in response to an advertised job offering, got accepted for an interview within about two weeks. Interview process was standard enough, didn't differentiate from other interviews you would be used to having.

Question 1
If asked, what would people who know you say is your greatest weakness
Applied online. Call from recruiter and interview a week later. Interview was quite straight forward (CV, competency questions based on core values, and technical questions, GMP, HPLC, troubleshooting etc). Had to do an online supervised assessment a week later.

I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Pfizer
Interview
The interview was straightforward. There were two intervieweers, both of whom introduced themselves and their roles. Was asked four Competence-based questions and then one question based on the company value. Compantance question was based on the roles.
Applied 3 times with no luck, had the exact qualifications and skills as other people who I know working there. I put my CV through a Careers guidance company who said it looked good. No feedback on why I wasn't chosen.
