      Scientist I Interview

      22 Feb 2017
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Whitesboro, NY
      Declined offer
      Positive experience

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at ICON (Whitesboro, NY) in Feb 2017

      Interview

      I applied online and got a call for a phone screening interview from HR in Pennsylvania. I was asked basic questions about my background, availability, interest, and preferred salary. Two and a half weeks later, I got an email from HR to confirm a time for another phone interview with the hiring manager and the director of the lab for which I was applying. They were on speaker phone and told me more information about the position. They asked more specific questions to see if I was a decent fit. They invited me to an on site interview, which was scheduled via an email I received a week after that call. The interview itself was about a week and a half after that call. I met with my potential supervisor and the lab director, the same people I spoke with on the phone. I also had lunch with a few members of the lab who I'd have been working with if I ended up working there. Long process, questions were not difficult, and everyone was very professional but it felt pretty relaxed at the same time.

      Interview questions [2]

      Question 1

      What was something you had done wrong and had to report to a superior? Follow up: were you at all hesitant or afraid to report your mistake?
      Answer question

      Question 2

      What is a significant out long term goal you had and how did you accomplish it? (try to choose a goal that can relate to the job)
