I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Novartis in Aug 2023
Interview
Got shortlisted after Group discussion and 1st round of personal interview. Got mail for second round but due to some miscommunication from their side, did not schedule for 2nd round. After numerous calls and mails, took second round just for name sake and straightaway rejected. Had to suffer the consequences even though not at fault.
Overall great interview - friendly people that wanted to get to know me. No trick questions, just straight forward behavioral info. Conversation felt natural and the interview was not too long - it was about 30-45 min.
