J'ai postulé via une agence de recrutement. Le processus a pris 1 semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez Eurofins (Londres, Angleterre) en oct. 2011
Entretien
They give one interview to the staff and then you are taken to the laboratory. I was then offered the job and told to see the way the laboratory works. They wanted me to stay there the whole shift but because of a problem in the laboratory I never stayed. But I was given a chance to make a colliert tray with 100ml of water mixed in powder. Which is a main part of the water laboratory work. I spoke to others afterwards and they said they were taken to the food laboratory and asked to cut a fruit sample to a certain weight and test it.
Interviewed by two people, the main manager and the team leader. While waiting for the interview sat with others waiting for interview. Interviews tend to recruit several people not just one. There is a unused building across the road where you can park, the road outside the building is normally full of cars. And surrounding roads need a permit otherwise park near willesden junction station and walk down.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
They kept asking if I would be prepared to do the work saying sample come on a conveyor belt. This is so you expect the worse to stop people leaving job early. No real technical questions. Worth researching MLGA, Colliert and Pipetting for water lab jobs.

Entretien
Very friendly people, international and well educated backgrounds, motivating, respectful and understanding interviewers. It is a big company with great people but I heard that the salaries could be much better.
Not too bad, only lasted about 20 minutes. It wasn't behavioral based, just went over my qualifications. I got interviewed by two people (hiring manager and EHS coordinator). It didn't take too long to hear back as well. Good opportunity to get your foot in the door for recent grads

It was pretty easy. The questions were pretty much common interview questions. There were some related to lab experience. Prepare to answer questions about lab experience. Overall, it was an easy interview.
