Positive Experience
Easy Interview
Application
The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Merck KGaA (Rockland, MA) in June 2009.
Interview
I had a very positive experience both w/ HR managers and with the hiring managers. I had a phone interview with HR and then a 1 on 1 interview with the hiring managers on site. They primarily asked me why I wanted to work with them, what I thought were my strengths and weaknesses, and my availability to travel since this position requires some travel. Overall the people I met with were very nice, down to earth and engaging.
