I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Genentech (San Francisco, CA) in Feb 2013
Interview
Gave a presentation with Q&A followup & full day interviews. Everyone was pretty much down to earth, however one Sr. Scientist was arrogant and demeaning. Came from the same company I had worked for and called everyone there stupid.
He was angry and threw things in disgust during interview.
