I had a first screening interview right after I applied online. The interview was quite difficult with specific questions related to the position. The interview was 2 month ago and I haven't heard back since and haven't even received an automated rejection email either.

Question 1
How did you navigate scientific disagreement with coworker?
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Roche in Mar 2025
Interview
Applied via LinkedIn and heard back from HR after 2 weeks. Scheduled first virtual call with hiring manager after a week. Followed up with both HR and hiring manager after another week. Never heard back from HR for next step. It feels like they already have an internal candidate since the hiring manager wasn't even trying to make the first call as interview, more of casual chatting.
