So before you answer this question, examine their code and determine how your concept of commitment aligns with theirs. "Our Code outlines the commitments we ask everyone to make together. To deliver our purpose and ambitions, for patients, shareholders, and our people. To make our culture real, so we are ambitious for patients, accountable for impact, and do the right thing. To create an outstanding place to work, where everyone can thrive. I commit to The Code so that we get ahead together. I will be ambitious for patients. I will be accountable for my impact.

HireVue offers practice questions on their website to prepare you for their process. While the practice questions may not apply directly to GSK, they can still serve as a useful exercise. "While virtual interviewing isn't difficult, a little practice can help you prepare. Most on-demand interviews ask you to give your answer in just a few minutes. It's helpful to think about how you will illustrate your skills clearly in that timeframe, and to practice them out loud."

The best way to showcase how well you've prepared for your interview is to come across as confident in every answer to every question posed. Try not to seem too rehearsed. Instead, enunciate your words and avoid stutters and long pauses. Practice, relax, and be yourself.

"I consider myself a person of great integrity. If I commit to something, you better believe I will see it through. Failure can happen in your development, and you can learn from it to shore up your future success. But not being true to my word or following through on my commitments is an unacceptable personal failure. For example, I am committed to my career and would never give up on it. I will always give my all and do the best I can. I will act with integrity, be true to my word, and always try to do the right thing. That's my commitment."
