Round 2 with hm was around 30min technical, and final panel interview was mostly behavioral questions. Great vibe but whole process took almost 3 month which is a little exhausting.

Entrevista
Run of the mill...Online application followed by phone screening. Spoke to two hiring managers regarding the position. Asked basic questions about my research as well as some probing questions to gauge my critical thinking skills. At the end of the day it was not the right fit for my skill set. Everyone was friendly and professional.
Received interview invitation shortly after I applied online. First round was HR phone screen, second round was HM, then panel interview with 2-3 people in one panel and 3-4 back to back interviews.

Panel round they asked some technical questions like describe a certain operation, what are some types of certain material (membranes). They asked what are the top three attributes of an ideal company that I want to work at. They also asked about how I deal with conflicts with coworkers and supervisor.

Preliminary screening interview with the hiring manager, then ghosted completely. When I reached out 3-4 weeks later the response was pretty terse and I am technically still waiting to hear a decision either way.
