J'ai postulé via un recruteur. J'ai passé un entretien chez Gilead Sciences (Foster City, CA) en mai 2021
Entretien
Interview with Gilead Sciences is the best experience by far. It is more of a process to understand the company mission and goal, my role, and to meet the future team. Interview process was long and thorough, there were a lot of technical and behavioral questions, but you will be fine if you know your stuff. You also get feedback during the interview process which will help you in preparing for the next ones. Recruiting process was really fast. It was completed within 4 weeks.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Lots of technical and behavioral interview questions. At the end, you will also give a presentation. The behavioral questions are conventional behavioral questions that you have read about. However, some of them are tailored towards the expectations from your role. I will say, just prepare on the technical recruitments from your role and also prepare on conventional behavioral questions and the ones related to your role.
HM phone screening and onsite interview with presentation. There was a group lunch with few team members. At the end of the day, there was a HR interview. I received a rejection by email.
