Colloquio
Questions about DNA, statistics and optical methods were asked. Most of the questions can be found on glassdoor. The interview lasted about an hour. I actually learned quite a bit from the interview. The interviewer is good at asking questions so be prepared, not only to prepare the basics but make sure you would be able to answer some extended questions.

Colloquio
It was a 30 minute phone interview with the manager of the life cycle development team. They asked basic technical questions in everything ranging from biochemistry to statistics. I thought it went horribly but I was emailed a day later inviting me to a 2.5 hour onsite interview. I will post again when that is complete.

First is a phone screen with a recruiter. Then a 1:1 phone call for 30 min with the hiring manager. Then a 4 hour interview on site. You meet with 7 people with half hour time slots. Six of them technical, one HR. Most of the interviewers are interested in your technical problem solving abilities and critical thinking skills. Personality fit with the organization is also tremendously important. The company is evolving quickly and so are the requirements of candidates.
