      Research Associate Interview

      27 Feb 2014
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer

      Application

      I interviewed at Merck

      Interview

      I was an interview candidate for an internship in their RNA Therapeutics department. Everyone I interviewed with was incredibly intelligent, and though there was clearly a lot on their plates with regard to research, they spent time trying to see if I was a good fit for them (and vice versa). Not only was impressed at how forward thinking the department was, but also with the company's focus on employee health and wellness.
