I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bayer (Berkeley, CA) in Mar 2012
Interview
Submitted an application online, received a phone interview where I was asked some behavioral and technical questions. The phone call ended up going to an hour as the interviewer and I got into an interesting discussion about my research. After passing the phone interview, I did a face to face interview with a senior engineer whom I would be directly working under if I was accepted. At this interview, there were more technical questions and we discussed the project I would be working on over the summer with him.
The interview questions were very technical. The interviewers were very professional, friendly, and, respectful. The questions were directly based on my resume. I had three sets of interviews in 4 weeks
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Bayer (São Paulo, São Paulo) in Nov 2024
Interview
Entrevistas simples, nenhuma competência técnica testada, apenas fit cultural. No geral como a empresa têm uma cultura boa as perguntas eram bem conduzida sem ter pressão desnecessária. As perguntas foram sobre "minha história", "Porque eu quero a Bayer", "Onde me vejo daqui alguns anos" ... A Dinâmica de grupo foi conduzida em inglês mas o nível era bem básico.
2 rounds with behavioral and technical questions. Technical questions focused on things listed on your resume but also be aware of techniques mentioned in the JD. I heard back from them after 2 weeks and they gave me 3 days to decide if I wanted to take the offer.
