The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Illumina in May 2021
Interview
I was contacted for a video interview and the system was fine. The recruiter never replied to any of my emails though, which felt impersonal and rude. I applied to an identical position in two locations, and after the interview I didn’t get the job, but they closed out the wrong position and left the other in the “interviewing” stage for over a month. Maybe I wouldn’t have gotten an interview for the second position, but it felt like them closing the wrong one might have cost me the chance at the other through a second chance.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Illumina (San Diego, CA) in Sept 2019
Interview
Impersonal, and I never felt like I was being emailed by a real person. I was never called, just emailed a link to record my interview through HireVue. Two weeks after submitting my video interview, I got an email rejection.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
What can you tell us about the products Illumina sells?
I had a video interview via Hirevue. The questions were not too difficult but the video process made it feel rushed and a little uncomfortable. Not the best way to get to know the applicants in my opinion. I haven’t heard anything back from the company yet.
