Featured Interview
Anonymous Employee in Tarrytown, NY
I applied online. I interviewed at Regeneron (Tarrytown, NY)
Conversational style interview, open to hearing about the candidate and allowed plenty of time for questions. Began by describing the position, asked about candidate past experience and problem solving strategies.
- Tell us about your previous experiences within the biotech space.
Just started at Regeneron beginning of this year and was hoping to negotiate a raise at end of year but I was told by a colleague that they don't do that here? Is this true that only HR can determine raises, leaving us no room to negotiate? and is it true at other companies?

How many different companies should I have worked at by the time I'm 30? I love it at Regeneron but I'm scared that's it bad to have only one company on my resume
If you’re happy with your pay and work, company loyalty is a good thing on resumes, recruiters will see that you’re likely to stay and maybe be more likely to hire you. People only jobhop so much now bc companies don’t reward loyalty anymore and often the only way to make meaningful salary jumps is to leave
