I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at W. L. Gore & Associates (Flagstaff, AZ) in Feb 2015
Interview
There were several phone interviews with panels of Ph.D. level scientists within the company. The first interview was a HR recruiter asking what I knew about the company, then the interviews subsequently went to the R&D team and became much more technical.
