      Difficult interview

      Application

      Interview

      Got two phone calls. one from the recruiting mana.ger who was very nice and asked very soft easy questions. One later from the hiring manager asked lots of hard questions, had a pretty rude overall demeaner

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. I interviewed at Illumina

      Interview

      They asked for a video one way interview which was strange. Feels like the manager does not have the time or cares enough about the process to do the interview themselves.

      Application

      I interviewed at Illumina

      Interview

      Talent acquisition asked standard questions but couldn’t tell me much about the specifics of the team or role. Would imagine that would have been more of a hiring manager task.
