This was probably the most negative interview experience I have ever had. They basically sit you down and give you a sheet with SAT/GRE words to define. It's absolutely pointless. No one on a day to day basis will be using words like "insouciance" and "persnickety". Their assessment only tests people's ability to memorize dictionary words. Not their analytical or communication skills. Very unfortunate choice for screening potential candidates.

Process involves taking some tests, a couple interview rounds, and was very positive, engaging and relaxed. We work with clients of all backgrounds and ages so it is important to be an active and comfortable conversationalist on the phone and in person. We discussed my prior work history and reasons for leaving prior jobs. There was a one-on-one meeting with the director of the lab along with several other meetings with the other employees as the office functions as a small, tightly-knit team and collaboration is important.
