J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Thermo Fisher Scientific (Londres, Angleterre) en mai 2018
Entretien
I got an initial phone screen and was offered an assessment day after the phone screen concluded.
I was asked if I had experience of laboratory procedures and aseptic techniques during my studies.
I was offered a formal, assessment day interview at the end of the telephone interview.
Assessment day consisted of a group exercise which was highly stimulating,a tour of the facilities, a chance to process a few samples in the lab, an interview questionnaire and finally a 20 minutes formal interview with the head of the site.
It was more relaxed than I expected, pleasantly so and the interviewers made us comfortable so I could be myself on the day not a ball of nerves.

The process was unnecessarily lengthy and unorganized.
Applied online, received invite for screening call shortly after. Then received invite to schedule an in-person meeting through their schedule portal. There were no slots for over a week, so I let the recruiter know of this issue. They schedule me in for an in-person interview which then gets moved. Already spotting the red flags but show up anyway.
Interview with team supervisors was easy, straight forward competency based questions.
I then get invited to second in-person interview after almost 2 weeks of no contact. Show up for that, very informal.
I knew this wasn’t my top choice as it’s underpaid and I am overqualified. However, I knew my performance was good throughout the process and was expecting some decent feedback.
After 2 weeks of no contact, I get generic rejection email.
This process took over 2 months for no reason.

Two interviews with literally the same questions, just with different people. Unfortunately, after the process is over, it's difficult to get information from the recruiters about what was missing and what could be improved.

Question 1

First was just a screening phone call with HR just checking if I want the job. Then was the actual interview which was pretty much standard STAR questions and basic questions about what I know about the job and company. Interviewers were nice and friendly. Honestly though complete waste of time. Nearly 2 months this whole process was, only for them to hire an internal candidate. Pointless waste of time.
