I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Thermo Fisher Scientific in Mar 2014
Interview
Applied for a position at one location. Short phone interview by HR was pleasant. Interviewed with the Sales Manager. Was not hired, but the manager like me so he passed my name along to another Sales Manager. After about 3 weeks, I was contacted by him and we met in person with another Sales Rep. Interview lasted about an hour and was very pleasant. Had one last phone call with the Regional Sales VP which was more or less a formality. They extended a job offer about 3 days later
