I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Sandoz
Interview
I received an email from a recruiter who scheduled an interview with me in the next few days.
I had a phone interview with 2 people for about a half an hour. The conversation was not pleasant and extremely ‘’dry’’. The interviewers were not even trying to engage in the call; I was left without the concrete questions. They were also not polite (they arrive late, but did not apologize for that).
I was not asked any questions about my resume or my experiences and I felt the panel did not review my application docs at all.
Moreover, there were some connection problems from the interviewer site and on the number occasions I highlighted the issue, but they totally ignored that fact.
I have a new phone and handset that was check before the call, so I suspect the problem was on their end.
I would describe that interview as the worst experience ever, combing the quality of the questions and the atmosphere during the call.
