I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at PerkinElmer in Sep 2021
Interview
Multiple interviews talking with several members of the team. The interviews were very comfortable and were just casual, but in-depth about my experience and background. The interviewers were very transparent about the job, including the traveling aspect.

Question 1
What is my experience maintaining laboratory instrumentation?
Interview went 2 rounds for a position in Germany:
First (HR/Online) round was very friendly. She was prepared and professional in her work and approach.
Second round (Technical/Online) was said to be technical, but more questions were personality based. The interviewers appeared young and somewhat unprofessional. The atmosphere during the interview felt harsh and unwelcoming. Because these individuals lead the team, this dynamic gave the impression that a challenging or rough environment might exist within the team itself.

What would you do incase of a customer is angry on you?
Friendly conversation about who you are why you're interested in working for the company. Your communication skills are key. As a Field Service Engineer, you will be the person who meets with the customer and essentially the face of the company.
