      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Roche

      Interview

      2 interviewers, one personal and one technical. Some tricky technical questions on organic chemistry, including aromatic chemistry and carbonyl chemistry. Needed to know specific reagents and mechanisms to make them also. Interviewers were harsh but fair, helping where they could. Personal questions were more about career progression and growth for the future.
