Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Illumina (San Diego, CA)
Colloquio
Interviewed with HR then with the hiring manager (HM) over the phone. Then moved to the team interview where I spoke with HR and the HM along with several other engineers on the team. Everyone was great and HR was probably the best I've interacted with. However the responses to my questions made me worry about the work life balance, and the base pay they offered in 2021 for a PE I was between $75K-$85K (seems a bit low for CA cost of living). The other benefits sounded great but it just didn't make financial sense to pursue this. After factoring in both of those I decided not to wait for a response but to resign from the interview process. A tough decision since this was the company I had always wanted to work for.

How do you go about finding the answer to something you don't know?
Before the interview date, everything was arranged on a call and email for a day and time. On the day itself, after registering at the security counter, was brought into a meeting room where the interview was held, before the interviewers came in after a while.

If they want to interview itll move quick. Really clean cut interview, doesnt seem like your personality or character matters much. The interviewer was stern and made everything feel like a rush. Perhaps they already had a decision
Phone screen with HR into video interview with actual engineer. Would have been on site next interview. Job description did not match requirements they actually wanted, job was on site hire immediately.
