Associate Research Scientist Interview Questions

4,832 associate research scientist interview questions shared by candidates

Asked for specific examples on technical projects, hurdles and how I overcame them. They asked if Lubrizol would meet my career goals and objectives and I answered that I was exploring at this point and had a lot of questions, about corporate culture and organization. I wanted to get to know the hiring mgr and asked her what her educational background was and how long she worked there. She replied like a cold dead fish and stated that it wasn't relevant. Overall I perceived her as unfriendly and NOT the sort of manager I would want to spend any time with based on her tone and attitude.
