How we hire

We prioritize providing a positive candidate experience as much as hiring exceptional talent.

When an Avantor career piques your interest, click "Apply" and submit your application. Our team will then review your qualifications against the role's requirements. We are committed to providing an update regardless of the outcome.

If your application is selected, a recruiter will schedule time to discuss the role and learn more about your background. Our goal is to get to know you, your goals, and how your skills would align with the opportunity's requirements, so we can determine if there is a strong mutual fit.

Upon reaching this stage, you'll meet with the hiring manager and team. Similar to the screening step, our goal is to get to know you and your background. We'll also assess fit through targeted questions and scenarios and share insights that will help you gain a deeper understanding of our team and culture.

The lead recruiter will provide an update once our team has reached a decision. If selected, you will receive a verbal and written offer and information on the next steps. If you are not chosen for this role, we encourage you to apply again for future roles and stay connected by joining our talent community and signing up for job alerts.

In conjunction with our commitment to operating with excellence and providing a positive candidate experience – our team also places a high priority on attracting diverse talent and providing an equitable hiring experience. Here are some tools we have implemented to make this happen globally.
