      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Gilead Sciences (United States) in Jul 2023

      Interview

      The interview process at Gilead was notably humanized and efficient. The recruiter was excellent, keeping me informed and maintaining a friendly tone throughout. Although the total time was somewhat long due to scheduling difficulties, the overall experience exceeded expectations. Gilead's approach was considerate and professional, reflecting genuine care for the candidate's experience.
