A recruiter whom I had been working with before contacted me about this job opportunity, although it was originally listed for an RA. The phone interview was super awkward, as the hiring manager literally opened the call with "do you have any questions for me?". Exciting science but very very young (age-wise) company. I met with about 3 groups of 2-3 very nice and honest RAs or Associate Scientists (most without PhDs) who were basically all under 30 years old. I was about 6 months out of my PhD, while the hiring manager was maybe 2 years out of hers, and her boss was about 5 years out. It certainly made me question the scientific expertise and guidance within the company. They are growing out of their lab space, with everyone working almost elbow to elbow. I took a tour of the lab and a scientist could barely open the freezer without potentially bumping someone with the door. Hoods are shared by probably 3-4 people and have to be booked ahead of time. They did not select me for the position and I had to go out of my way to email the internal recruiter/hiring manager for their decision. When I asked for feedback, I got no response.
