I applied through other source. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Beckman Coulter Diagnostics (Atlanta, GA) in Jul 2018
Interview
Extremely disorganized. At first the recruiter was very nice and helpful. I was flown to a location in which they had me take a train to the Beckman Headquarters. They gave me the wrong directions so when I got off the train I was lost in the 98 degree weather. The interviewing manager would not give the exact address on where to meet them. After I finally found the building was suppose to be at, the interview was in a room that had a panel of three ppl. Two area mangers and one senior FSE. They rushed the interview as if they had something better to do. They kept interrupting me when I was answering questions and when I tried to give the one manager a copy of my resume he threw it back at me and said he didn't need to see it even though he had not researched my background....at the end I was given a pop quiz of engineering questions. When I told the recruiter about this she seemed to have no clue about the test. Apparently it was not HR approved and it was a clear case of discrimination. They did not ask any technical questions. I do not recommend this company at all. The managers I dealt with clearly had their own agenda and were not going to listen to higher ups that wanted me on the team. The recruiter also called me and got very nasty with me over the phone because I sent the manager a simple follow up email about the position. I've never in all my years of professional interviews have been yelled at by a recruiter or anyone for that matter. My intuition was completely off for this company. I'm sure I dodged a bullet. *APPLICANT'S BEWARE*

I applied through college or university. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Beckman Coulter Diagnostics (Noida) in Dec 2024
Interview
The process is not too difficult but they hire only one student. I don’t like this thing about the company. As there are basically three rounds. If you qualify the interview round then the hr round and even if you qualify the hr round. They put another round which is online. And i got failed in online round, i am really heartbroken as i was just a step away to get this job. And I really wanted to work in biomedical sector but somehow they did partiality or what can I say? My interview went well, I had given all the answers with honesty but still I am rejected, I can’t describe what I am going through. If I got disqualified in the initial technical interview then I won’t be sad that much.. but now it’s like that what went wrong? Like I am not able to understand, if they want a boy from the starting or something like that then they shouldn’t conduct this rounds and all. I think they shouldn’t do this to anyone bcoz it really hurts when you are capable enough and you really wanted to go into the healthcare sector but somehow you can’t get that job bcoz of just one person who takes my online interview don’t like me or something whatever I don’t know.. I am really frustrated right now as I really wanted the job and I always had an interest in biology. I know life is not over now and I also know that whatever happens, happen for the good. But when someone did their best, and if the company wanted to choose one person only then they should just do it after the hr round. Why do they need to take final round as I don’t like their process tbh.. they are doing really wrong
