      Associate Scientist Interview

      Nov 12, 2021
      Anonymous employee
      Madison, WI
      Accepted offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Catalent Pharma (Madison, WI) in Nov 2021

      Interview

      I interviewed in October/November of 2021 for a position at the Madison, WI location. The interview process lasted about 3 weeks. Three parts were invloved: Initial screening with their recruiter, a 30 min screening with the lab manager, and then two 45 min back-to-back video calls (one with 2 people and another 1:1). Overall the feeling was laid back, but questions were answered pretty much one after the other, rapid fire. A good mix of technical and behavioral questions. Technical questions were not very daunting. They were basically questions regarding my previous experience with things that the job description included. This specific job description dealt with protein purification. Offer of 57k and 3.5k signing bonus. I accepted the offer.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Q: Describe your experiences with protein purification. Q: Describe a time you can a coworker had a disagreement. How did you handle it? Q: Describe a difficult decision you have had to make in the last year and how it impacted your decisions thereafter.
