Phone screen followed by seven zoom meetings with a total of nine people over two days. Everyone was friendly and professional but it was very time consuming on my part.

Question 1
Tell me about yourself?
What do you do outside of work?
Disappointed by the low effort put in by the interviewers. One interviewer asked boiler plate questions printed from a Google search. How do I know? They held the printout right in front of them. Another interviewer had never looked at my resume and thought I was someone else. If this is the amount of effort they put into identifying a candidate, then actually working there would scare me.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Allogene Therapeutics (South San Francisco, CA)
Interview
Met with the hiring manager first to discuss the role. Then presented a seminar on previous research. Afterwards, I had more one on one interviews followed by a group interview with the team.

Pretty standard questions like why are you looking to leave your current position?
