After submitting my application which included short answer questions, I heard back for an interview in just under a month. I spoke with two interviewers and was asked a lot about my life outside of my academic or professional life.

I had interviews with some key people, it was pretty relaxed. We set up email and times to connect with everyone for interviews. It was all virtual at first, then I had a follow-up in-person meeting which was mostly a tour of the facilities.

Behavioral Technical
I went through three interviews at Fox Chase Cancer Center, all coordinated by the same recruiter. It was a really bad experience. I got one offer, one rejection, and I withdrew from the third after taking the other offer. The HR department actually advised AGAINST hiring me, even though I had already accepted an offer from the hiring manager, who seemed really happy about it. But just three hours later, HR told me the offer was off the table. I suspect HR influenced the hiring manager against me. I'm glad I didn't end up working there, their pay is terrible. It felt like they were trying to rip me off, and HR is just there to keep salaries low to save on payroll taxes. This was by far the worst interview process ever. HR convinced the hiring manager not to hire me, even after I'd accepted. The HR rep even told me they didn't 'screw me' out of the interview I withdrew from because I 'wasn't a top candidate anyway'. Funny, because they interviewed me after a 40-minute phone screen, so I must have been a decent candidate then. And to top it off, the HR rep yelled at me for contacting the hiring manager directly. This place is awful, HR is against you, and the hiring managers will lie. Avoid Fox Chase, they underpay you and try to scam you. HR is the worst part.

I was interviewed by three scientists, and they gave me a tour of the lab. They asked me questions about my experience with science, but they were more focused on my passion for it. It was a cool experience talking to really smart scientists about what they love about their field and sharing a bit about myself with them.

- Do you know how to use a micropipette?
