I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Exponent (Natick, MA) in June 2025
Interview
First interview was with the hiring manager, not looking for technical qualifications so much as "personality fit". Second round was with another principal scientist, asked to prepare a conversation about an example that demonstrates my problem-solving ability. Was not invited to 3rd round, which would have been an on-site interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Give us an example of a time you had to use good scientific fundamentals to solve a problem.
