Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto un giorno. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Merck (West Point, PA) nel mese di mag 2011
Colloquio
Multiple interviewers in a day, technical questions for R&D positions related to industry knowledge, process engineering, and some school related questions. A big part is personality and fit in the culture. People were friendly but lots of observations going happening. Maybe some arrogance but that's part of r & d in general.

Colloquio
Interviewed with the department's Director
The group's manager, senior scientist, potential peers (2 scientists at the same level), and the department's HR representative. This is a whole day interview with lunch in the company cafeteria with 2 to 3 of your potential co-workers.
The interviews are one on one and the interviewers ask both their own and HR mandated questions. Overall, interviews at Merck are very professional and pleasant.
