J'ai postulé en personne. J'ai passé un entretien chez GenScript (Parsippany, NJ)
Entretien
long story short, the in person interview is not at all what they ask you to prepare for. They ask you to prepare a powerpoint presentation about yourself and present it to a room full of people. Once you present you spend the next 30-45 mins being grilled non stop by 6 different staff. They continuously ask you question after question.
I would describe the interview as stressful and fast paced.
Con- they don't have the courtesy to email you if you do not get the job. Its highly unprofessional.

3 step interview, HR at the beginning and later with executive panel. The interviewers were nice. Questions were not difficult (ex. Your background, related skills and behaviors). If you were looking for a job recently, it'll be easier to prepare and answer these questions
