I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Merck (West Point, PA) in Jan 2023
Interview
All virtual; first an HR screening call and then a panel team’s interview. I was kept informed throughout the process, although timelines were longer than predicted. Great interview questions that were fresh and thoughtful. You could tell what was important to the interview team by the questions they asked.

Question 1
When was a time that you independently learned something new in order to develop yourself?
It was a Zoom meeting interview, I received an email to schedule teh most convenient time for the interview. She was very polite and respectful. The questions were about my experience related to the position
3 rounds of interviews, the first one was done by recruiter and the second one lasted for 1 hour by hiring manager. It was informative and clear description of job scope. Appreciated that they shortlisted me for interview even if my background is slightly irrelevant. So sad that I didn't manage to go through the third interview
I applied online. I interviewed at Merck in Jun 2024
Interview
Panel interview with 4 interviewers together on a teams call. Hiring manager presented the interview questions on slide and read them to me. I can re-read the questions over which helped not to miss understand. There were about 4-5 questions and once you answer a question, interviewers asked more questions about the topic.
