Quick video call with manager - very easy felt like a conversation. I had a quick video call with the hiring manager, and it felt very easy and conversational. The tone was relaxed, and the conversation flowed naturally — more like a casual discussion than a formal interview. We talked about the day-to-day responsibilities of the role, the importance of consistency in cell culture and assay prep, and how the team supports Amgen’s high-throughput screening pipeline.
The manager seemed approachable and supportive, and I appreciated how clearly they explained what success in the role looks like. They seemed genuinely interested in my background and how it aligns with the position. Overall, the conversation left me feeling even more confident that this is a team I’d enjoy working with and a role where I could grow and contribute meaningfully.
