Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Varian Medical Systems.
Manufacturing Test Engineer
I had the initial phone screening with the recruiter. They asked about my qualifications, told me about the job requirements and what the hiring manager was looking for, and went over all the great benefits. The recruiter was really nice and professional and seemed interested in my application. At the end, they asked for my availability over the next couple of weeks and said I'd be scheduled for the next round since the hiring manager was interested. However, I never heard back.
- What salary do you expect?
- The budget for this role is this, which is lower than my expectation.
- Do you want to proceed with this opportunity?
Test Engineer
The interview process started with a recruiter call, then a technical screen, and finally an onsite interview. During the process, I was asked about zener diodes, binary numbers, my 5-year goals, my interest in fixing things, how to fix a broken light, and how to identify a blown fuse.
- What is a diode?
- Can you solve binary numbers?
- What are your career aspirations for the next 5 years?
Software Validation Engineer
It began with a quick chat from HR, followed by a one-hour meeting with the team lead where they asked general questions. I heard back about two weeks later.
- Could you share a bit about yourself?
- What are your salary expectations?
- Describe your ideal team.
