I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Thermo Fisher Scientific (Carlsbad, CA) in Nov 2021
Interview
All of the interviews were over zoom. There was a phone interview with HR. Then a zoom call with the hiring manager. Then a 4-hour panel interview. One of the requirements was to prepare a presentation on one of their products. This whole process of preparing the presentation and interview took a lot of time. I had to take time off and spent days stressing about it. I thought I had done pretty well but, in the end, I was completely ghosted. I emailed a few times, but no one emailed back. I would understand if I hadn't gotten the position. There are a lot of talented people out there. However, it would have been nice if someone told me I didn't get the job. It is a little ironic given that this position is a customer service position, and they stressed the importance of communication in the interviews.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Thermo Fisher Scientific (Madrid) in Apr 2024
Interview
La entrevista fue cordial y sin problemas, pero lo decepcionante fue no recibir ninguna respuesta, pese a que mencionaron su intención de continuar con una segunda entrevista. Falta de comunicación.

I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Thermo Fisher Scientific (Budapest) in Aug 2023
Interview
It took them many weeks to arrange an interview, then kept postponing it. After the interview, they said they would get back to me in a week, but they never did. It's been two months. The interview was with a supervisor and a manager. I won't be applying here anymore.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Thermo Fisher Scientific (Glasgow, Scotland) in Apr 2022
Interview
I first applied via the website after my friend, who already works for the company, sent me the job description. I had two interviews: the first one was with the HR, it was very quick and not scientific interview. The second one was with my future manager and my future colleague and was more skills and science-related interview. I had an offer only few days after.
