      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at L'Oréal (Clark, NJ) in Oct 2017

      Interview

      The interview process experience was very positive but intense. I first had a phone call with someone from Talent Acquisition team, which asked me general questions. Then following a week, I had a phone interview with the hiring manager, which was a lot more technical, testing my knowledge and expertise. I was then invite for an onsite interview, where I had to present previous scientific work, meet with HR, and meet with team members, including the two heads of department.
