Interview
Genentech wants people who work well with others and are overall friendly individuals, as you will be put on a shift of about 10 employees if offered the job. It is important that you get along with these coworkers because you will be spending 10-12 hours with one another.

Started with a phone screen with a talent recruiter where they asked basic questions and described the position. The next interview was a panel interview with a few supervisors in manufacturing
