J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Merck (West Point, PA) en juill. 2008
Entretien
The hiring process was not difficult at all. It started with a very casual phone interview with the hiring manager and then I was brought in for a full day of interviewing with the department. I met with 5 different individuals from the department, ranging from Senior Engineers to the Executive Director. After the process I was contacted the next day with a tentative offer.

Entretien
Multiple interviewers in a day, technical questions for R&D positions related to industry knowledge, process engineering, and some school related questions. A big part is personality and fit in the culture. People were friendly but lots of observations going happening. Maybe some arrogance but that's part of r & d in general.

Interviewed with the department's Director
The group's manager, senior scientist, potential peers (2 scientists at the same level), and the department's HR representative. This is a whole day interview with lunch in the company cafeteria with 2 to 3 of your potential co-workers.
The interviews are one on one and the interviewers ask both their own and HR mandated questions. Overall, interviews at Merck are very professional and pleasant.
