Had an initial screen with a recruiter for a Senior Scientist role that I applied for. A few minutes into the call they let me know that it was for a Junior Scientist role. They let me know the compensation for the junior role (was high school job level pay) and asked if I was interested. The recruiter told me that the company "has bills to pay" when trying to explain the low compensation... Based on my experience and background I thought it was a lowball offer, so I withdrew. I've seen a lot of reviews about low compensation/little growth from workers at this company, so I'd be well aware of that when taking an interview.

I received 2 rounds of interview. 1st round is a phone interview, which is from HR. The 2nd round is zoom interview, which is technique interview from Hiring manager(group leader and manager)

There is an initial phone screening that is very typical. The onsite interview was less than an hour. They asked typical questions plus a couple of technical questions. Process was pleasant.
