      Process Development Technician Interview

      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Illumina (La Jolla, CA) in Jun 2021

      Interview

      Got an initial call from the department manager, it was general probing questions and checking if I was still interested in the role. After initial phone screening I got an email a few days later about scheduling an in-person interview with some panels. I came in and was interviewed by 3 different multi-person panels. It was a mix of Senior Engineers and Senior Technicians asking the usual technical knowledge and personality probing questions. The interviewers were thorough in their questioning, but nothing too out of the ordinary for a technician position. It was a 1/2 hour with each panel, and in total went on for 1.5 hours. They let made me a job offer in less than a week.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      I had a degree in Chemical Engineering, so they wanted to know if I still remembered how to plug some variables into JMP coding format.
