Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 4 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Thermo Fisher Scientific (Carlsbad, CA) nel mese di apr 2016
Colloquio
I was contacted by an internal recruiter about a month after I submitted my application at Thermo Fisher website. I had a phone interview with the recruiter with mostly management questions and some questions related to the position, followed by phone interview next day with direct boss. Then, on-site interview the following week with executives (one-on-one interview with 5 people). The interview went very well. Everyone was very professional, enthusiastic and respectful. Most questions related to the position and "get to know you" kind of questions. There were knowledge exchanges at the interview which I really appreciated.
I was verbally informed of the offer in the following week. The interview process was very efficient and informative. Every event and appointment were on time and accurate.

The interview process involved two stages with both the hiring manager and the department head. They lasted 45 mins each and were centred around competency based questions. Eight weeks after the final interview I asked for feedback and was told it was moving to offer stage. The HR contact then told me that the funding for the role had been reduced and offered 20% less than was initially advertised. I declined the role.

I thought for certain I would be hired for the position given my qualifications and recommendation from a current employee. They kept me around until the final round as a token Black woman, but ultimately I was not hired. Apparently they hired a White man, no surprise.
