I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Extrel Core Mass Spectrometers (Denver, CO) in Mar 2021
Interview
Fairly simple interview. Called and spoke over video chat. Discussed what the job would entail. Service engineers require 90%+ of travel which is hard to keep a good work life balance at that point.

Interview
Typical interview process begins with a single or series of phone interviews. Upon passing to the next round, candidates will attend to 1-2 in person, on-site interviews with various management types. Typically this includes the direct manager for the position and the upper management as well. Often the interview will cover the science and their technical capabilities.

Question 1
Describe how you would handle a situation where a customer challenges your scientific knowledge to the point where they actively deny what you are trying to explain.s
Initially there was a phone interview going over the typical behavioral/minimum qualifications questions. It was quite simple. The second interview was a Skype interview. It was with two hiring managers. The basic questions were reiterated and it wasn't a very demanding interview. I would not be too worried in the interview process.
