I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at GenScript in Apr 2025
Interview
Overall disorganized. I was not aware the interview would involve two candidates and treated the other candidate as the hiring manager until they joined later than the established time. Questions were short and had little to do with the position many of which were asked more than once.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at GenScript (Redmond, WA) in Jun 2023
Interview
It will begin with a simple phone call screening when they sort of get to now you and your knowledge in regards to the position. Next, was a video call interview where they asked more in-depth science related questions. Lastly, an in-person presentation interview where you will present yourself and background, then be asked question by a panel of people associated to the team you are interviewing for.
Too much complicated interview process even for an entry level position. Three rounds and a powerpoint presentation for an entry level position?! Also, assigned HR was somewhat condescending in terms of asking a lot of questions and she seemed in a hurry to end the preliminary phone call.

Question 1
HR-related questions, provided complicated instructions over a powerpoint presentation for an entry level job. Too much complicated. HR rather seemed in a hurry to finish the preliminary round.
