CERN Response

Thank you for your review. In recent months there have been fewer people on site, a mixture of continued remote working and holidays: the atmosphere of sharing and collaboration is fast returning as we all are back on site after the holidays, and we hope you will feel the warmth of our community again!

Pros

The employment process is very smooth and supportive. The technical team interviewed me for technical skills, and the HR is very supportive and helpful. Especially I haven't been employed by CERN previously, so I have a lot of questions. The employment team is very helpful and answered all my questions patiently. Also I like the job and my work very much.

Cons

Maybe the primary communication method could be email instead of phone calls? I sometimes miss phone calls, but will check every email.
