I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at BioRender
Interview
They have an extremely long five or six step process for an entry level role. I made it to the 2nd stage with the hiring manager before being told that while my previous experience was impressive, they would've liked to hear how I could apply that to this role. I found this odd as I wasn't asked any questions that allowed me to answer in this way and I can't be expected to know everything about a new company. I feel that the company is definitely looking for a unicorn candidate as the process is way too long and interrogative for an entry level position. I probably would not interview with them again just with how cumbersome and time consuming their process is.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What's your experience in customer success and how was success measured in your previous roles? Asked about previous managers' names
The interview was fair, your standard background questions and behavioral questions. They have an insanely long 6 interview process for all job levels, ranging from potential co-workers, CEO, and panel interview, including a take home assignment. That’s honestly so ridiculous and the salary is below the current market for similar roles.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at BioRender in May 2023
Interview
I went through 2 rounds of interviews, first was the initial screening with the recruiter, second was a video call with the hiring manager of CS. General interviews, no scenario questions, more about your experience and the basic intro interview questions.
