Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 3 mesi. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Genentech (South San Francisco, CA) nel mese di apr 2019
Colloquio
I applied online. The process took 3+ months. It was well organized. Most people are very skilled and experienced there. I was asked to give an hour seminar. The questions were very relevant and on point. I also had one-on-one interviews that lasted half an hour each all day. Prepare for a tiring day.

Domanda 1
Why do you want to switch from academia to industry?
Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite un'agenzia di reclutamento personale. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Genentech nel mese di gen 2023
Colloquio
Multiple rounds with a lot of technical questions, and a very interactive team. The hiring team members were intelligent and respectful. It took some 3-4 weeks to complete all rounds. Enjoyed the interview process and was provided with feedback.
Phone screen interview. No call back. Felt not relevant for role. Cold. It was hard to get an idea of what the job would have been relating to. Found another job

Colloquio
First there was an initial HR screen, which, if it goes well, will be followed by a shorter meeting with the Hiring Manager. After this second interview, the final round interviews were structured such that I gave a 1 hour seminar to the department corresponding to the position and then had around 13 individual, half-hour long interviews with different people.

Domanda 1
This depends on the seminar and scientific background of the candidate, but one question I received was the typical:
Why Genentech? and Why move to industry instead of stay in academia? and What were my motivations for not pursuing a postdoc before applying to industry?
