Met with two members of the team who seemed were concerned mostly with the quantity of cells lines that I have handled at once. The process is definitely more about your skills than personality.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Eurofins (West Point, PA) in Aug 2019
Interview
I got a phone screening then had interviews with two different team members. This was quite awhile ago, so the interview was in person. In general, it pretty easy- some personality questions and more questions about how much experience I had and with what than in depth technical questions. I got an offer, but I ended up taking a high salary at a much smaller company, which seemed like a better fit for me. My experience was limited but overall it was positive.
