      I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at GSK (London, England) in Feb 2021

      Interview

      I had a call with the HR person responsible and then had an interview with the hiring managers and team which involved a presentation. The whole process took about 6 months from application, and after my interview I was left hanging for three months.
