Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 4 semanas. Fui entrevistado pela Amgen (South San Francisco, CA) em jul. de 2015
Entrevista
I had two or three phone screens before being offered an in-person interview. The day before the interview I had an area tour. Interview day was an onslaught of something like fifteen 30-minute unstructured interviews. Strangely, not everyone had met or even heard of the hiring manager. At least two people told me I was obviously a fit and told me why I should accept the offer they were sure I would get. A couple of days later I received an email saying that the director (who I had not yet met) was traveling in my city and wanted to meet me. I had to drop everything to meet them within about two or three hours. This interview was long (1-2 hours) and left me with mixed feelings. Eventually I received an offer. The company does have some good perks and they offered good relocation benefits. This wasn't enough, however, to overcome the fact that the offer itself was insulting. They dropped the title at the last minute and the salary was low even for the lowered title. We negotiated but the recruiter seemed like a used car salesman working against me. I ended up turning down the offer. I currently hold the title I originally applied for at another company with a salary 60% higher than Amgen's first offer.
Make sure you negotiate! The offers are low!

Three rounds, HR, hiring manager then with the team.

Entrevista
Interview was fairly standard. Questions were basic. It was only an online interview with the Principle Scientist after the initial HR phone screening. Was told in the interview they only hire the most qualified candidate. In rejection email "sorry, but we are going to hire a friend of someone that already works here" So if you want to work for Amgen, I hope you have the right friend, otherwise they'll never hire you. I heard they might hire you if you just graduated, but what about those of us that are mid-career?
