Straight forward, half day interview. Did not have to give a presentation. Initial phone screen with the hiring manager, followed up shortly with an onsite interview panel. Overall, was comparatively less intense of an interview process.
I applied online. The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at Sarepta Therapeutics
Interview
Contacted by HR followed by 1-on-1 technical interview with Hiring Manager (Principal Scientist). The HM was severely disinterested from the start, didn't ask any technical questions, seemed like wasting everyone's time. Didn't hear back until 6 weeks later. Invited for interview with 4 team members. Friendly people but again seemed like a formality with no interest in my skills, expertise, or background. Company culture seems very relaxed and unprofessional. HR representative was very professional and the only good thing about the company.
I applied through other source. I interviewed at Sarepta Therapeutics (Cambridge, MA) in Apr 2022
Interview
The hiring manager will contact you to schedule a 30-minute pre-interview. Following that, you will be asked to meet with five potential colleagues from human resources and your potential teammate and director. If they believe you are a qualified candidate, the final round interview will consist of a one-hour presentation and a 30-minute chat with 8 colleagues.
It was a fantastic journey to chat with so many kind and wise people in the Sarepta.
