I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Arbutus Biopharma (Warminster, PA) in Sept 2025
Interview
Very laid-back and horn on day-to-day activities of an associate director of Clinical Research. The interviewers were very nice and made me feel very comfortable in the first few minutes of the interview.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Arbutus Biopharma in May 2018
Interview
One of the worst ever! The person that I had a phone interview with had the interpersonal skills of a rock. Right from the start the interviewer was aloof and disinterested. So disinterested in fact that I simply do not understand why you bothered in the first place. Given the company review it doesn't look like I am missing out on working at this company. Good luck attracting talent with your boorish interview skills!

All questions were fair, dealing with technical experience, company knowledge and TA expertise. None of the questions were particularly difficult.
