4 Part Interview 1 - In person interview with HR. Basic interview questions. 2 - Interview with Cardiology/ Endovascular + technical questions about past projects 3 - Interview with Pain Management + take home mechanical device assignment 4 - Submit assignment 24hrs later, defend solution to completed assignment Try to get 1,2,3 done in 1 day instead of multiple days. Be prepared to wait between interviews. Expect a week between (1,2) and (3) and another from (3) to (4). The interviews have been mostly positive and friendly. They seem to be interviewing a large number of candidates. They asked about: - Base salary (say 50-60k negotiable). - Transcript (for new grads) and ask about your low marks - Your interest, experience, knowledge and passion for biology, biomed, biotech - Why you want to work for them - Your strengths and weaknesses - A past research project + your problem solving thought process (Past research experience is highly valuable, Baylis is a research based company) - Solidworks experience (basic modeling, watch youtube tutorials) - Other jobs you are considering (and if in GTA) - 2-3 references - They asked if interested in doing masters or PhD Info: -Show passion for wanting to work in the field and in their company. - Employee turnover rate (1-3 years), seems like they have a hard time retaining employees.... - Apparently they are looking into more corporate structure to promote employee career growth, to be implemented 2014. (time will tell... ) - Growing company, possibly growing faster than management can handle. - The R&D engineers who work there are very friendly - No room for growth, some R&D engineers have been there for long. Tired R&D engineer structure in the works. - Ask about their corporate structure and corporate culture. - Ask about work life balance. - Hard to tell if they are exploiting candidates for innovation with their interview assignment or if they are really trying to better understand you and your problem solving thinking. - They do a lot of injection molding + rapid prototyping. - Reiterative designing + documentation - Dress code: business casual (rather dressy, higher ups in suits, lots of heels) - 25-30 ish engineers (Sept 2013) - Cardiovascular/Endovascular is ~75% of their business, Pain Management ~25% - Ask HR for a follow up email when you get your phone call asking you for an interview.

The process started with an HR interview. After a few weeks (!!) They scheduled a couple of interview sessions with the hiring team which included one take home test. The total process time appeared to be too long.
