The interview consists of three stages.
The first interview was held by phone and the questions were related to the sciences for the position I am applying. The interview was about 45 min.
The second interview was about the science but they asked more specific and more details. It took1 hour and 30 min. During the interview, some questions about the possibility to relocate were asked.

Interview
Interviews were very well organized and hiring manager was very communicative. However after interviewing in-person with the entire team (about 10-12 people for about 4 hours) I was ghosted. The director as they walked me out after interviewing said I would hear back either way in 1-2 weeks. That was three months ago. I almost expect to be ghosted if it was just a zoom interview, but it is disappointing they did not have the courtesy to say that I was not selected when they said I was one of the top candidates during my lengthy in-person interview. Everyone I interviewed with was nice and honest and happy to answer any of the questions I had. Due to both the good and bad, I gave the overall experience a neutral.
