I had a panel interview with HR, the Lab Manager, and the Regional Manager. They asked me some HR questions about handling tough situations and leadership examples. After that, it was just questions about the schedule and what procedures I had done.

This is a very thorough interview process. After applying, you will get an email for a short in-person interview asking basic questions. If you do well, you will get a second interview where you will be interviewed by three separate groups. Following the interviews, you will perform a series of tests on a pilot plant with other people who are also trying to get the job. They want to see teamwork, troubleshooting skills, and overall communication to see how you work with others.
