Initial screen, chat with hiring manager, group presentation, interview with CEO in Sweden.
I was excited about Sectra initially but after seeing how things work internally, I'm thinking I seriously dodged a bullet. While nice, the individuals I worked with seemed very disorganized. I got two initial emails from the recruiter, not realizing she already reached out to me previously. I also got sent a meeting invite with no actual meeting link. In line with other reviews, I almost wondered if this was part of the interview process to see how I handled their incompetence. The vast majority of interview questions they asked were banal and seemed unrelated to anything. Ask me something technical, asking me what I would do if I woke up and there was no gravity is literally a waste of everyone's time.
Four out of five people didn't attend my group presentation on "The Future of AI in Healthcare" due to a last minute audit. Then after a 15 minute chat weeks later with one of the people who couldn't make it, they decided to proceed with other candidates. Do you think this 15 minute discussion involved asking any questions about my presentation? No, it was basic interview questions like it was the very first time they talked to me which threw me off. It took two months to get from initial reach out to a form letter denial, which is somewhat insulting after working with a group for literally months. No information about why I wasn't a suitable candidate other than "at this time your skills and experience.." etc.
If you are technically adept at all, you can likely do much better than Sectra.
