So for the interview process, it was broken down into 2 stages. First, there was a phone interview. Then, the second stage was an assessment center, which included a tour of the 2 labs and the GMP manufacturing area. This assessment center had both technical and behavioral questions.

The interview was pretty simple and quick. I started with a short video interview where I answered 3 questions. Then, I was invited for an in-person interview.
