I applied online. I interviewed at Amgen (Juana Díaz) in Aug 2020
Interview
The process was more like an interaction. This happened in 2020.
I don't think at that time Amgen was conducting any coding round. So after first call with Recruiter, I had two more calls. One with a senior team member and other with the team. It was mostly based on resume and they asked most questions related to data science based on it. They also discussed projects they were working on and asked my opinion on approach.

I got the call or email to schedule the interview after i applied the and they asked me to schudule the interview for the time of my choice and i did that

Question 1
explaining overfitting, optimizations and some data wrangling questions
Difficult process needed attention on knowledge. Also required hands on knowledge of other cloud technologies. Therefore it can be easily put into words as if simple term that the interview was not an easy process at all. It tested various areas of expertise
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Amgen (Thousand Oaks, CA) in Feb 2024
Interview
Phone interview. Then Technical Interview. Finally Hiring Manager Interview. Pretty smooth. Asked me about my resume more than anything else. Don't lie on your resume because some engineers at Amgen are quite knowledgeable, despite being in biotech.
