I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Thermo Fisher Scientific (New York, NY) in Oct 2015
Interview
First contacted by a recruiter, then a phone interview with a district manager. Face-to-face interview requested within a week. After first face-to-face interview, requested second face-to-face with two other sales reps from the district. Interview was pleasant, district manager was very nice. I was asked a lot of questions about sales tactics. Make sure to ask a lot of questions!
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Thermo Fisher Scientific
Interview
It was a mid-length interview. We started with self-introductions, and then the HR asked a few questions about my personal interests and hobbies to make the atmosphere more relaxed. After that, there were some detailed questions about my current job experience, especially regarding what I have done, what I have learned, and the achievements or strengths I demonstrated. The discussion was mainly focused on work-related topics. Overall, the interaction was very normal and professional, and the interview was conducted in a polite and friendly manner.

Interview
I have a video screening call with Talent Acquisition. He was very nice, checked that I was a real person, went over the job duties, confirmed my resume and my salary requirements. He gave me the name of the hiring manager and said she was excited to speak with me. He told me to expect to hear from her soon. I never heard anything. I reached back out to my HR contact to follow up two weeks later and he let me know I was not chosen to move forward to the onsite interview.
