      I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Colgate-Palmolive (Piscataway, NJ)

      Interview

      I was interviewed by a couple scientists who work for CP. Each person asked me questions for 20-30 minutes; a lot of the questions that were asked focused on how I performed in certain situations with my previous jobs. At the end of the interview process, I was able to briefly tour the research center. Overall, it was a good experience.
