Experience:

A candidate for a Bioanalytical Portfolio Scientist (remote position) had their first interview with HR almost a month before posting. The HR interviewer informed them they were being moved to the next round, which would be scheduled through AI. However, the candidate had not heard back since, though their Workday tracker indicated the application was "still in review." Another user with a similar experience for a different role mentioned that it took about 2.5 weeks to hear back after the first round, and the interviewer cautioned that it might take a while.

Amgen's interview process generally involves an initial screening (phone call or online assessment), followed by phone/video interviews with a recruiter or hiring manager, and then in-person interviews with team members and potentially senior leadership. For scientific roles, technical questions related to scientific concepts and methodologies are common, alongside behavioral and fit questions.
