Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you convince someone to try something they commonly outsource to a specialist?
I applied online. I interviewed at Thermo Fisher Scientific
Interview
Three phone interviews with different people. An in person interview , potentially not in the city in which the role is located. A flight up to another city of their choice for an additional panel round of interviews and 15 minute presentation on why they should hire you. I like the company, but it was just too much to require of candidates on top of working a full time job.
I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Thermo Fisher Scientific (Ridgefield, CT) in Sept 2015
Interview
30 min HR interview with STAR questions so have some stories ready
60 min phone interview with manager
They flew me out for a panel of 4 interviews, about an hour each
All seemed good and I liked the job but the sales director was a perv. He kept commenting on my outfit and looks. Then the manager told me he only hires people he wants to hang out with, since there are a lot of sales meetings. My stranger danger radar went off and if the culture is like that, no thank you. I don't need my boss trying to get in my hotel room.
Tell me about a challenge you faced with a tough boss? What did you do?
How do you handle conflict? Do you handle issues internally or do you feel it best to call HR?
