      Business Analyst Interview

      Feb 16, 2017
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Cambridge, MA
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Agios Pharmaceuticals (Cambridge, MA) in Jan 2017

      Interview

      Overly drawn out as previous reviewers have commented. They make you do a ridiculous 45 minute presentation about something no one understands or cares about. They clearly have way too much time on there hands for so many people to be involved in what should be pretty quick and simple hiring decision. I suspect they routinely keep jobs open for 6+ months as they struggle to find consensus as to who they should hire. Also, everybody seems to be some type of academic with way too much education and way too little practical experience. I suspect this is the reason the company can't launch a successful product and is constantly seeking new financing.

      Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback on the interview process here at Agios. We constantly strive to provide a positive experience for every candidate, and we are sorry to hear that the process did not meet your expectations. Unfortunately we did not have a Business Analyst position open in the month of January, and therefore we won’t be able to explore the specifics of your review. It also sounds like some parts of your experience were inconsistent with our typical process, such as the in-person application. We will take your perspective into consideration as we continue to improve our overall process. Again, thank you for your time.
