I applied through other source. I interviewed at Biotage
Interview
If your experience is not directly related, its very hard to pass the screening round. Technical skills that can be transferrable are also not asked about during the call. They also expect lots of experience in their services. Hard to break in, type of company.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Biotage (Charlotte, NC) in Dec 2021
Interview
Two over the phone interviews and then face to face interview with CFO, Manager and HR.
Also, had to take an assessment test, which determines your strength, weaknesses and logic.
Took two weeks to hear back from them.
I received an email to schedule a phone interview with an HR rep, and when the day came I didn't get a call. I followed up and the HR rep said they were very sick, and we rescheduled the interview again to a few days later. The day came, and once again, they did not show up. I followed up, and a week after was sent a rejection. The whole process was unacceptable and unprofessional, and I ended up being ghosted in the end without a reply from the company after that, so it was quite frustrating, especially after I was trying to be flexible.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Nothing, I never received an interview despite being reached out for the position and rescheduling twice due to the HR rep never showing up for either interview.
