1st interview was very informal and only lasted 8 minutes for me.
2nd interview lasted an hour asking many questions, some being usuall questions like when have you inspired someone then also many questions about projects I worked on at uni and a lot of them relating to working as a team.
Final question was a competency question about if a fragrance turned brown after exposure heat, what would you and what problems could this cause.

Entrevista
Two separate interviews- the first a short call with a hiring manager just to know you are actually interested in the role. The second interview lasted around 45mins-1hr, one half general questions and the second half more technical. The second interview was with two people who are directly involved with the R&D team. They asked some specific questions that included scenarios of product materials failing during testing and customer use.
