I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Alcon
Interview
The initial hiring process and interview were fine...until I was given an offer. You put your desired salary range in your application, but they offered me $9000 under my range (which was less than my current role). They were unwilling to negotiate or offer any other incentives, and they never even responded to my reply. Then, one of the Alcon hiring managers informed a manager at my current company that they gave me an offer, who confronted me and informed my company's leadership that I am interviewing elsewhere. This is completely unprofessional and immoral, so I am glad I declined.
