      Scientist Interview

      Jan 13, 2015
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      San Carlos, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Natera (San Carlos, CA)

      Interview

      Phone screen by HR followed by phone interview by hiring manager and then on-site interview. The whole process took about 5-6 weeks. Little or no information/feedback provided after each step. Everybody seemed too busy and even the on-site interview felt like it was an inconvenience to people. I was given lunch but no time to eat it. Interview questions were OK, some problem solving questions and lots of technical detail (I was asked the same technical questions in the phone interview and at the on-site interview). Didn't seem like much thought had gone into the technical aspects of the interview. The company generally appeared to be disorganized and manic.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      No really difficult questions, general problem solving and standard technical questions.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Natera in Jun 2021

      Interview

      Interviewer expects you to know obscure, niche details vaguely related to the job description, then puts you down with a smug sense of superiority when you don't know the answer.

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Natera in Sep 2016

      Interview

      The recruiter contacted me through email one week after I submitted the application online, and he scheduled a phone screening interview with me. It was a very quick interview, it lasted 10-15min. I was told that I would be contacted by the hiring manager if they decided to move on.
