Entrevista
I got the interview through a employee referral. I was email communicated for telephone interview. It was a 1 hour telephone interview by Hiring Manager. A basic discussion on needs of the job and my interest including some of my research work. After a week I got a call saying I am scheduled for onsite interview and a HR telephone interview. The HR telephone interview is taken by a contract agency. Just simple basic questions. Coming to the all important onsite interview. The onsite was day full of interviews by various engineers and scientists. I met around 15-16 different people. I also gave a presentation lasting 1 hour in the middle of the day.
All questions during the day were basically about my past work, team work, goals, work ethic etc. Each of the 15 people had a different way of asking questions. So I would recommend being confident with your answers and be yourself. My 1 hr presentation questions were geared towards my research work as expected.
I got an email after 3 months saying I am not selected. I was pleased with my interview performance but unfortunate.

Entrevista
Interviews were very well organized and hiring manager was very communicative. However after interviewing in-person with the entire team (about 10-12 people for about 4 hours) I was ghosted. The director as they walked me out after interviewing said I would hear back either way in 1-2 weeks. That was three months ago. I almost expect to be ghosted if it was just a zoom interview, but it is disappointing they did not have the courtesy to say that I was not selected when they said I was one of the top candidates during my lengthy in-person interview. Everyone I interviewed with was nice and honest and happy to answer any of the questions I had. Due to both the good and bad, I gave the overall experience a neutral.
