Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 4 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Meso Scale Diagnostics (Gaithersburg, MD) nel mese di set 2008
Colloquio
There were two phone interviews prior to an in-person, day-long interview. I had to give a talk on prior work, and then 5 pairs of people each taking half an hour. I was taken to a nice lunch. I was not given a deep understanding of the concentration of decision-making processes at the very top of the company, and led to believe that I would have more authority and responsibility than I ended up having.

The interview went very well, with no real tough questions and it seemed like an excellent fit. I was asked about my understanding of molecular biology, engineering, machine shop practices, principles of operation of various lab equipment, statistics, etc.
