Colloquio
The Interview was over Microsoft teams with three senior biomedical scientists from the virology department. They were very friendly and introduced themselves and started by giving information about the position and then followed by asking 6 questions. The whole interview lasted around 30 minutes and I was given a verbal offer of employment the following day.

The job is very repetitive, how would you remain focused?

Colloquio
a 20-30 minute interview in front of a panel, followed by a 15-minute practical test. The interview focused on health & safety and confidentiality (GDPR). Make sure you research GDPR and the various risks associated with the lab (Biological, chemical, and physical). So make sure you become familiar with how to prevent breaches of data and risks (SOPs, COSHH, PPE). Do some research on how the lab operates and your duties, as they may ask you about this. They also ask you how to ensure a team works well together. The practical test included arranging blocks in numerical order, accounting for alphabetical suffixes (e.g., if numbers are identical, A group precedes B, and B group precedes C). If you prepare well and do some research beforehand, it should go smoothly.

It was a good interview I had to prepare for, wasn’t the easiest one I had. But I worked hard for it and did well. Questions are unexpected ones and not easy
