I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Genentech in Jun 2011
Interview
Phone interview with hiring manager then brought in for 1 on 1 interviews with about 8 other people. Long day. People were all very nice but i got the feeling they were willing to hire a less experienced person so they would stay in the same position for a long time.
Interview process is extensive and thorough. Initial interview is with HR on the phone, followed by panel interviews, then final interview with several people in San Francisco. Usually requires a presentation for final interview.
