Candidate-reported interview process

Had a quick 20 min interview. They asked me about my personality and time management skills from school. Then they gave me an overview of the job and asked how I would solve some problems. We did a quick tour of the lab. I heard back in under 2 days.

The interview involved a tour of the lab and a rundown of the work schedule. The questions weren't too tough. The interviewer really stressed that overtime might be necessary. Given the unusual schedule and high staff turnover, overtime is a given. So if you enjoy working hard and earning good money, this job's for you!

The initial job for Lab Technician had just one day of interviews, but it included four interviews with four different people. Later, when I applied for a promotion, there were three interviews. One was a panel interview with about five managers, which was pretty relaxed and informal. The other two interviews were with upper management and were much tougher.
