I was scheduled to chat with the recruiter and the day of they canceled the interview with no reason given. Attempts to contact the recruiter have failed. Asking friends at the company indicates the recruiter is still working there.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Genentech in Aug 2025
Interview
The first round is a 45-minute conversation with the hiring manager, followed by panel interviews, and finally a job talk. I didn't make it past the first round so I cannot comment on how those are conducted.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is a technical project that you are most proud of?
five 30-minute interviews with team members discussing research. These were quite informal and were mainly a back and forth discussion. After this process, you gave a 1-hour presentation of your research to the company.
