Had a 20-25 minute in-person interview. They asked about my past experiences, skills, and education. Then, I got some behavioral questions about conflict, time management, and quality assurance. Lastly, they asked about my expectations from a manager and my work ethics.

Behavioral Technical

The first round was with HR, covering typical behavioral questions and some technical ones about PPE, safety, and other lab procedures. The second round was about 25-30 minutes, again with behavioral and situational questions. They asked about analytical balance, since it's the main instrument used in the pre-processing area.
