The process was really sweet. They asked typical interview questions for my role and told me what they were going to ask before I even joined the interview. Genuinely the sweetest people ever.

Had a zoom call that was about 30 minutes long for the first round. I didn't move past this stage. The interviewer was really nice and made me feel comfortable, letting me take my time to answer.

I got contacted by a recruiter and had an interview the very next day. The labs are really nice and clean, and everyone I met was super friendly. My interviewer gave me a tour first. Then, in a conference room, she and the project manager talked about the job duties and what a typical day would be like. I got to ask questions, too. They were really nice and made me feel comfortable. After that, I talked with two people currently in the role, and they were also really nice. Sadly, I didn't have the blood experience they needed for the job. I really want a job, so I went to the interview anyway. I'd love to work there someday and had a great experience, honestly one of the best. I'll definitely apply if they have openings in the molecular biology lab.

Behavioral Technical

After applying online with my CV and cover letter, I was contacted about a month later for a Skype interview. This interview was with the lead scientist on the project and the director. It wasn't too tough, lasted about 45 minutes, and they asked basic questions about my past research experience and my 5-year goals. The interviewers were helpful about the job and seemed nice, but the director was texting on her phone for part of it and didn't seem very engaged. I sent a thank you email within 24 hours, but never heard back, which was unprofessional since they said they'd update me within a week.
