Pretty standard interview process which includes phone calls with HR and hiring manager prior to on-site seminar and interviews. The on-site interview day is pretty long, but a break and lunch was provided which was nice.
I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at SQZ Biotech (Watertown, MA) in May 2019
Interview
Multi stage interview through multiple calls, ended with onsite with whole team and meeting wider team members. Overall a positive experience, and thorough. Appreciated the opportunity to get to meet people at, below, and above my proposed level.
Everyone is super friendly and smart! There is a phone screen and then full panel interview with members of the team. If they require additional interviews, they may ask you. Then, they ask your references.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at SQZ Biotech in Jun 2019
Interview
The process was very professional. Interviews were timely and it took one whole afternoon. Questions were related to previous research experience and covered both technical and soft skills. A lot of questions on how to handle difficult work situations.
