I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Globus Medical (Audubon, PA) in Mar 2013
Interview
Initial communication was quick and well followed up. I was given options for any day in a week. As I was coming out of state, I scheduled it at 10 am. The interview started at the right time. The interviewers were very professional.
As I was interviewed for a specialized position and was told that I will be replacing an expert, I was very excited about the position.
Total of 8 people interviewed me. there werent that many technical questions asked. I believe that I answered all questions very efficiently as I have a lot of experience in design field and also materials. I was asked if I had designed any product by my self and I showed various designs that I had done on my personal computer. It ranged from a simple bracket to complicated aircraft landing gears. I dont think any of the interviewers but one who interviewed me at the end knew anything about the specialized field and complexity of the designs that I showed.
I was not given any information about the benefits in detail or gave me any information about work life balance which were very important me. Did not even spark a discussion about compensation after learning how much I made at the time of the inteview.
Anyways I thought that the place was not for me after I finished the interview. I sent thank you emails to each and every person who interviewed me and got reply from only one person who was the person who initially contacted me. I thought that was very inconsiderate, uncourtious and unprofessional.
The most unprofessional action that I experienced was that I never got a reply about the outcome of the interview. That was not I expected for flying from out of state and it seemed like it was a waste of money and time. There werent any replies to my follow up email about the decision of the interview.
Just a reply to me about the decision would have made me give a great review today.

Showed me a custom designed part and asked me how it works.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Globus Medical (Audubon, PA)
Interview
The interview process consisted of an intro call with a recruiter, a phone interview with a hiring manager, then a final interview where they flew me in. For the final interview, you have to complete a design challenge where you create two part designs in CAD prior and present them during the interview. After presenting your designs, I had 1-on-1s with 5 different managers and potential coworkers. Most of these individual interviews also involved being quizzed on different instruments and engineering drawings. Overall, an intense and time consuming interview process especially considering the work you need to put into the design challenge. I got a weird vibe while there and got the impression from talking with everyone that it is a very high stress work environment with a very demanding CEO. The office itself is very bleak. Picture cubical hell with no windows, and there is no flexibility to ever work from home. Even so, I thought the interview went well and I was perfectly qualified for the role, so I was preparing myself to hate my future job, but ended up getting rejected after stringing me along for another week. Really wasted a ton of my time. Final impression was that they were looking for someone with senior level experience to underpay at a lower level.
