I applied online and then got an email for an in-person interview. They asked me some basic lab safety questions, basic chemistry questions, and how I report results. Then I took a tour around the lab. The whole hiring process took about 5 weeks, give or take because of the holidays.

It was a quick and easy process, very professional and friendly. They were hiring in a hurry and showed respect. They responded quickly, the process was fast, and I got feedback immediately. They offered a contract first, promising to transfer me to permanent afterwards, and hired me through a recruitment office.
