I had to read an SOP to get into the facility. I first met with the Interim Manager and talked for about 30-45 minutes. Then I met with the Supervisor and a Scientist and talked with them for the same amount of time. The interview was scheduled for an hour, but I asked a lot of questions, so we moved rooms and it ended up lasting 1.5 hours. It went really well, I made them laugh. I asked them about what they liked about the company and how long they've worked there. My advice is to dress professionally, speak clearly, answer questions honestly, and be yourself. They're looking for someone who fits the team, so show your personality. They did ask about my experience, what equipment I've used, and some technical questions, so be ready to talk about science stuff without using too much jargon.

I had a phone screening first, and then they called me back for a second interview. The second interview was in person. They asked about my general background and skills that are relevant to the job. They took a while to get back to me after the second interview.

Behavioral Technical
It was pretty straightforward. They wanted to check out my science background. I talked with two managers and a supervisor. The vibe was really chill. They go through your whole resume, so make sure everything on there is legit and you've actually done it. They'll probably ask about your senior project or any labs you did back in school.
