Phone screen with the lab manager, followed by two hours of conference call video interview some time later. The interview was split into two one hour calls with three people on each call, other than me. The each had required competency questions they had to ask, focusing on different things they thought were important.

The recruiter refused to share the salary range during the initial interview but insisted on knowing my salary expectations. She tried to spin that this was for my benefit. This felt like a blatantly predatory tactic used to lowball applicants on pay.
