It was fairly straightforward, but there was a recruiter doing the hiring, so they didn't really know what they were talking about. You are interviewed by both the company and the recruiters. Such is the life of a scientist looking for work; people who studied management and human resources are rarely equipped with the knowledge to conduct a proper interview about scientific research. Also the position is temp to permanent.

Panel interview with three people then the director. Only one person at a time. One interview was technical questions, others were typical interview questions. Started with a “tell me more about…” from your resume.

Was not very well put together. The interviewers were essentially falling asleep as soon as they came in. It was not a good experience overall. The interview process is long, with interviewers who don’t engage with the interviewee.
