The first interview was with the Hiring Manager. Based on outcome of this interview, and given continued interest in the candidate, the subsequent interviews were with team members. This includes an interview with Human Resources.
Overall, it seemed fairly rigorous. There were a number of rounds or tiers of individuals to meet with and they asked relatively involved questions. They shared an appropriate amount of information regarding the position.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Aptinyx in Nov 2018
Interview
Prior to the phone screen with HR, I was informed that HR had rejected an individual simply because they talked too much. I had my phone screen with HR and was told they enjoyed the conversion but I didn’t provided enough detail. When I started providing very detailed answers one the call HR stopped me and said “we need to be mindful of time”.
I don’t think HR has a clue about this position.
