I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Thermo Fisher Scientific (Glasgow, Schottland) in Feb 2021
Interview
The interview itself was good. Hiring manager and a staff quality engineer took me through the interview on Microsoft teams.
Interview format was quite standard with competency based questions but the tone was friendly throughout and I had ample opportunity to ask questions myself.
Due to business changes the role was withdrawn but I never received any feedback on my interview which was disappointing. Overall I had a positive impression of the company and would consider applying again in the future.

Interview
The interview process is very interpersonal, the interviewers are looking to see what type of person you are versus your qualifications. Of course the requirements will be a part of conversation.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Thermo Fisher Scientific (Cranbury, NJ) in Jan 2024
Interview
Brief interview over the phone and then the video call two weeks after. The process was not too bad, but the interview questions were very technical. The questions were mostly from resume and their required techniques on the job description.
