      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Base4 (Cambridge, England) in May 2018

      Interview

      First was a general skype interview with typical background questions describing previous projects and experience. Second interview was onsite with two CTOs. There was a 20 minute presentation plus questions. They asked genuine questions about research work rather than the kinds of questions you see on recruitment websites. They gave me plenty of time to talk and answer the questions fully and to ask questions about the role. This was followed by a lab and office tour.

      Interview questions [2]

      Question 1

      Why do you want to switch to industry from academic research
      Answer question

      Question 2

      How did you find out about us and what do you know about the company
      Answer question

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Base4

      Interview

      Initial skype screening interview with the CEO. The CEO seemed positive but said they had too many physicists at the time. The interview itself was very brief and not very technical.
