      Senior Mechanical Engineer Interview

      17 Jan 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      San Jose, CA
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Cepheid (San Jose, CA) in Oct 2018

      Interview

      Overall good experience. Contacted by a recruiter and put in touch with one of the department managers. Spoke with several managers in different groups before we agreed it wasn't a good fit.
