I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Merck (Chapel Hill, NC) in Feb 2015
Interview
They did a phone interview and it lasted about 20 minutes. They asked some very general questions. For example, "Describe an experience of yours in which you successfully solved a technical problem" and "Describe an experience of yours that shows your ability to communicate and cooperate with your team members".
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Describe an experience of yours in which you successfully solved a technical problem
The interview process was quick and easy, I got an email straight from the hiring manager and only had to give one interview, all the people were super nice and welcoming.
First they did a phone interview and then two panel interviews. They ask usual questions, nothing technical based. The panels consisted of 3 people each. Took a while to get back and let you know your results.
It was a very average difficulty process. It did not take as long as other companies in this space to get back to me, and I felt like I was supported throughout the process.
