Very chill, people I met are nice and easygoing but one of the departments I interviewed for required me to do calculations on the spot and weigh things accurately and exactly in front of them. It was still chill and forgiving and overall good interview experience
Face to face interview, but very free and easy going interviewers, also gave a tour of the labs and facilities in their Singapore office. Explained the job description, and asked if it is aligned with what you want.
Interview was a smooth process from the start to the end. Interviewer was prompt punctual and knowledgable about the company and gave a quick summary of the job scope and the responsibilities. Ensured that both of us are on the same frequency of what is expected.
