Very brief phone interview, with questions about expectations and previous experiences. It included questions like desired time period and possibility of working in Switzerland. The phone interview was followed with an acceptance to the second round of interviews on MS Teams platform.

Interview
Very smooth process, interviewers were kind and helpful. 2 rounds, one of the best interview experiences i have had. Both rounds were conducted online using teams. i appreciated how kind the interviewers were compared to my other experiences.
My internship interview experience with BMS was a structured, multi-week process that began with a digital HireVue assessment where I recorded video responses to prompts like "Why BMS?" without interacting with a live person. After passing that initial screen, I had a brief logistic phone call with a recruiter, which led to the final round: a 45-to-60-minute video interview with the hiring manager and a panel of potential colleagues. The conversation was heavily focused on behavioral questions, requiring me to use the STAR method to demonstrate how I handle conflict, ambiguity, and teamwork, interspersed with some technical questions relevant to my specific function. throughout the experience, I felt that while they evaluated my hard skills, the team was primarily looking for a self-starter who genuinely aligned with their patient-centric mission.

They were very welcoming and created a comfortable environment. Most of the questions were asked regarding the company's values and included behavioural questions regarding these values. It was 45mins via zoom.
