      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Zymergen (Emeryville, CA) in Jul 2019

      Interview

      A prescreen with HR, was followed by a one on one with the hiring manager. A 45min presentation, based on an assignment given in advance. The presentation was projected my own laptop in a small meeting room attended by about 10 people. Followed by a series of 30 min one-on-one behavioral interviews (approximately 5).
