GSK graduate application 2015

I've asked the recruiting team about this status thing and I was told that it means that my application is under review...

my hope is beginning to fade as well I really wanted to get into this scheme as I want to explore the jobs within regulatory affairs and there are just no junior positions...

I too have been informed of this..

Basically the communications assessment centre has been filled with candidates whose interviews have been reviewed BUT mine (and I'm presuming everyone else's) haven't even been looked at yet. When I asked as to how they've determined the candidates that their application reviewed first, the excuse was "the communications scheme was very popular"..

I believe this implies the scheme operates on a first come, first served basis (in which case WHY wouldn't they just stop accepting applications after a certain quota has been filled!?)

ANNNNYWAY... The point I'm getting to is that, unless they prioritised those who applied first to review first & therefore invite to assessment centre, those randomly chosen have been done so out of pot luck it seems.

If so, I applied 6 days after the post opened - I doubt they became oversubscribed in such a short window..


I don't mind being sacked off for being sub-standard but to be sacked off without having my interview looked at? Behave!

vaccine program anybody??

why didnt you?

I applied for finance and was told by email (7th Nov) that my video interview would be reviewed, and if successful, I would be invited to a 2 day assessment centre on the 24th/25th. Still haven't heard anything and tomorrow is the last working day before those dates, so I'm not very optimistic. Anyone else applied to finance and heard back about the assessment centre on 24th/25th?

I think you should call them today and find out what's happening!

Well I called them a couple of days ago and they said they were yet to review my interview. Taken the advice here and called them again, and it turns out they've filled all the spots for that assessment centre but I could still be invited to a future one. At least it isn't a rejection! Still, would have been nice of them to let me know. Its extra annoying because I've had to reschedule an interview with another company on the chance that I might have been invited...

They also said it was first come first served which I find hard to believe because I applied on the day applications opened and did my video interview the second day after receiving the invite. I can't imagine many would have been much quicker! Not impressed with their HR.

Hey, does anyone know the assessment centre dates for health outcomes applicants?
