Entretien
I have never seen a company move so slow, it took 3 months from application until interview. Was asked to prepare information to present.
Interview was very aggressive with many questions about a spectrum of behavioral, chemical, and others for almost an hour.
Received no follow up which is as discourteous as can be after asking for all the work and waiting. It certainly makes one think twice about the company in general.

Question 1
Explain a time where an issue came up with a product and how was this addressed scientifically and with a representative from that company

Entretien
I had multiple interviews (3) at this company and not on a single one I obtained a positive experience. It right after middle school when I was applying for vocational training.
First of all, the tele service was really nice and supporting. The application process was fast I think (~4 weeks). I passed the first assessment center which was a test on the computer, including math, behavioral questions, concentration tests, etc. Quite comfortable.
That's all about the positivity.
Now to the interviews: we started with a group interview followed by them interviewing everyone one by one. The group interview was basically them introducing us the company and the job. I would rather like to write about the single interview. Here the interviewers were not kind at all. They followed the basic kindness rules with questions like would you like to have some water, laughing and smiling kindly. But i swear there was mockery here an there and it was really uncomfortable - if not traumatizing to some extent. I was 15/16 and where experiencing my first interviews. Well. I had to prepare an essay about anything I would like to. I wrote about Taekwondo since it was my favourite hobby. They did neither touch it or mentioned it but it was printed out on the table next to them. "You seem well prepared *mocking laughter*". Until today I do not understand what they expected. That I knew out of my mind when the company was created? All in all, bad experience.

Entretien
Interviewed with a panel of people in a conference room. Personal and technical questions but overall pretty laid back considering you are sitting across from three interviewers at once. It was enjoyable to do a tour of the labs and building afterwards
