Interview was nice but didn't get the curtesy of a rejection just ghosted. They seemed like nice people and it seems like a good place to work. They asked me a lot of technical questions and situational questions.

Vorstellungsgespräch
About a week after I submitted an online application, the HR reached out to me for a 30 minute phone call. Basic questions about my resume, prior research experiences, base salary expectations, and career goals were asked. At the end of the phone call, the HR scheduled a Teams meeting with the hiring manager for the following day. Interview via Teams with the hiring manager and one other scientist went great. A little more technical this time, but nothing too crazy. A week later, a panel interview was scheduled. On the day of the panel interview, I spoke to 4 groups of senior scientists/directors (2 people per group) for about 4 hours in total. The interview was much harder than I expected. It was 100% technical questions and 0% personality/behavioral questions. I did my best and tried to give them a positive first impression. 3 days after my interview, the hiring manager reached out to me via email informing me that a business decision was made to postpone the hiring of a senior associate scientist possibly till next year... Not the outcome I wanted, but there was nothing more I could do. I did thank them for their transparency.
