I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Thermo Fisher Scientific (Bengaluru) in Aug 2015
Interview
Round 1 : telephonic - asked about projects on resume, was called for Round 2.
Round 2 : Face 2 Face - after waiting for over an hour on the day of interview (which was mutually agreed upon by me and the HR rep), the HR rep mentioned that all members of the hiring team were in an ad-hoc meeting. Met with member from another team, more of discussion than interview. HR is still trying to fix this misstep. Overall, an unprofessional and frustrating experience.
Smooth two technical rounds. Both technical and theory questions were asked. It covers NGS pipelines and Bioinformatics Databases. I do not know about further rounds yet if I know I will update this review.
