I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Charles River Laboratories (Reno, NV) in Jan 2012
Interview
There's no phone interview; only a panel interview. Most of time was actually used for explaining the work you would do. The panel included three people: an HR person, and two research technician assistants. They weren't intimidating at all.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
One of questions asks how comfortable would you be coordinating with the higher ups. Last question was about your opinion on animal research.
