I interviewed at Generate:Biomedicines (Cambridge, MA)
Interview
Reached out to contact in company. HR then reached out, set up initial talk. HR was very pushy, insisting that my realistic salary range was unreasonable. Regardless, we pushed on and I had two interview rounds, one chat with the hiring manager and one with a broader team, including a candidate seminar. I wasn't thrilled with the team but was desperate for a new job so I pushed on. Eventually, over a month after interviewing, I received an automated rejection email. Overall experience was neutral at best, I'd say maybe a 4/10
