El proceso duró 6 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Benchling en jun 2021
Entrevista
Multiple rounds including phone interviews, two presentations and zoom interviews. It takes a lot of work to do well on the presentations, but I enjoyed the research it required. Overall, I think the hiring process at Benchling is intense, but I felt like it gave me a good view into the role I was applying for and a great opportunity to talk with people already on the team.

Mostly standard questions, but some curve balls like do you consider yourself a lucky person? And if you could repeat anything in this interview process what would it be?
Multi-stage process involving preparing and delivering a presentation on a set topic, and unseen technical work performed live in a zoom call. Calls with other implementation managers, HR, hiring manager and head of professional services

Entrevista
Headhunted by an external recruiter then had four interviews directly with Benchlings, two with internal recruiters and two with hiring managers all lasting approx. 30 mines. The interviews were general chats going through and asking technical questions and why you would fit into the company.
The feedback I got from the recruiter was i) They had a large pool of candidates ii) I didn’t show enough reasoning for making this career move. I read all the reviews on glassdoor, watched their presentations on YouTube, download the software, read all the blurb of expected IPO, and demonstrated that in the four interviews. This was contradictory to the feedback they gave the recruiter.
If someone has made an effort to attend four interviews, at least have the respect of giving credible feedback. It bring doubts to mind about the whole process, bearing in mind that the this was a headhunted application on my behalf.
