I applied online. I interviewed at Charles River Laboratories (Edinburgh, Scotland) in Oct 2020
Interview
The interview had been online, the questions were mostly behavioural and some technical.
In the end, they informed me they will email me the results, and if I were selected, they would proceed to the next step, which was to fill an online questionnaire form. They never emailed me anything although I asked for a feedback 3 weeks after the interview.

Question 1
Tell me what GLP is and how it is relevant to this role?
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Charles River Laboratories (Tranent, Scotland) in Feb 2022
Interview
Two-stage interview: firstly interviewed by the head of office in person and then later by the head of department online through Microsoft Teams. I also had to complete a personality test, and these results were discussed at the second stage. I think the test and second interview were more of a formality. I do remember the head of department said that for the position I interviewed they aren't looking for people who are particularly risk-taking.
