There are a total of three rounds: video assessment, HR interview, technical interview, cultural interview, and presentation. The last three are scheduled for a single day. The cultural interview involves selecting questions based on the company's culture.

Application Submission Fellows typically apply through a centralized portal (e.g., RPIF) or directly through company job postings. Materials usually include: CV/resume Letter of intent Transcript (unofficial is often acceptable initially) Letters of recommendation (some programs request these later) Initial Screening Interview Selected candidates are invited for a first-round interview, usually virtual, to assess general fit and communication skills. Expect behavioral questions and "Why this fellowship?" type of questions. Functional Area Interview(s) If you advance, you'll have 1–3 interviews with specific departments (e.g., medical affairs, marketing, regulatory, clinical development). These can be: One-on-one or panel format Include case questions or role-specific scenarios Focused on your interest and fit for the team Final Round Interviews / Matching Process Depending on the program, you may: Have a final interview round with leadership or cross-functional teams Enter a matching or ranking process, especially in RPIF, where both candidates and companies rank preferences Offer Stage Offers may be extended shortly after final interviews or match announcements. You're typically given a short window (24–48 hours) to accept.

After CV, motivion and reference letters submission, I went to a 30 minute virtual interview, with the two main responsibles for the project, divided in 3 parts: Presentation, presentation of the work and questions, introduction to the Postdoctoral program.
