I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Excerpta Medica (London, England) in Feb 2022
Interview
I applied through a recruiter the first week of Jan 2022 and received my offer letter early March 2022.
After having sent my CV and Cover letter, I was offered a writing test, which consisted of writing an abstract for a research article.
The results of the test were deemed acceptable enough for me to get a first set of interview on teams.
The first set of interviews was satisfactory for the company and they offered me a second set of interviews, with a bit more people.
All the interviews, be it with recruitment or members of the scientific teams were very enjoyable. It was mostly about getting to know me and making sure I understood what the position was about.

Interview
I sent an application for another position, and during the phone interview, the HR manager told me that I could apply for something more suitable. He forwarded my CV to Excerpta Medica and I have received an abstract test to complete. Afterward, they scheduled a video call interview.

Question 1
During the video call, the director of the department said they were looking for someone with a different background, despite seeing my CV and passing the test. On the other hand, the HR manager was extremely kind.

Interview
The interview process consisted of a writing test and a 30-minute video call with HR. For the writing test, you have a two-hour time limit to write an abstract based on a clinical manuscript. The video call was a casual and comfortable conversation about my research and my decision to pursue a medical communications career. I felt that they really wanted to get to know me, not just my experience.
