I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Merck (Lansdale, PA) in Nov 2014
Interview
Phone Interview. HR and hiring manager interviews. Standard interview questions mainly to understand the type of person and how well you can work with the team. Each interviewer took about 30 mins. I heard back them after 3 days with the offer.
The interview began with the manager asking me to introduce myself. After my self-introduction, they asked follow-up questions about my experiences and background. Then, the manager explained the role and described what I would be doing if selected.
