Question 1
What do you feel has been your greatest work-related accomplishment?
This was a fairly solid interview process. The interview team was quick and organized with clear questions and a process that makes sense. I also had the ability to counter offer.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Gilead Sciences in Mar 2025
Interview
3 rounds of Interviews and then got ghosted by recruiter. Mailed 3 times, and no response. You kinda get your hopes up if interviews go very well and it is your top choice career wise. And then they ghost you for a month and still no rejection, nor acceptance. Disappointed
