I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Moderna
Interview
A very straightforward process— 1. Phone screening asking about citizenship, other interview offers, and work authorizations. 2. Back-to-back 30 minute scheduled interviews. First with your team lead/manager, second with another manager on a different team. The first interview was more background and experience based questions. The second interview was more technical, asking about specific experimental techniques and what results to expect. Took about 2-3 weeks to hear back from them with a decision. The hiring team, managers, and process was easy to follow and very supportive from my experience.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
1. Tell me more about your lab experiences? 2. Why did you switch from a pre-medical background to engineering? 3. What can you expect as results from HPLC and PCR? How do these processes work?
Received an email from HR confirming interview dates. There will be two 30-minute rounds. Clear structure and timely communication helped me feel more prepared and informed going into the process.
Very friendly. Some technical questions, mostly behavioral and I had two rounds. First round with team members and the second round was with the manager of the group. Great experience
