I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Cepheid
Interview
Overall nice experience. The interviewers were really nice and professional. They asked relevant questions and paid attention to my answers. The interview took around 30 minutes with the hiring manager.
The interview was easy, but the HR and interviewee were very rude. I had mailed them several times, but they didn't have the basic decency to reply. It was a bad experience overall.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Cepheid
Interview
One phone interview with several scientists. It lasted 30 minutes and included technical questions. It was sometimes hard to hear which person was speaking. The call was was very friendly, they look a long time to respond after my interview.
