      Senior Scientist Interview

      7 Oct 2021
      Anonymous interview candidate
      South San Francisco, CA
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Alector in Mar 2024

      Interview

      The process had multiple steps. Several phone interviews, an onsite interview with the interview committee and seminar, follow-up phone conversations with HR, two additional virtual conversations. Everything went really smooth and was very organized and professional. All necessary information was provided well ahead of the respective meetings. There was a lot of effort to make the candidate feel comfortable and taken care of.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Alector (South San Francisco, CA)

      Interview

      The recruiter contacted me after I applied for the position. She never called me on the time we decided, instead she ended up cancelling it without informing me. We set up a meeting again and this time she called about 10 mins late. They do not value others time and eventually ghost after the first phone screen. Several emails and no reply to what happened after the phone screen. Please do not apply to this company if you value your time!
