I applied online. The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at Vestas Wind Systems (New York, NY) in Jul 2022
Interview
Typical corporate process. HR listens to you read your resume, waits to hear enough buzz words that they comprehend and then forward your resume to a hiring manager. Phone/zoom interview with manager. Typical tell us about yourself and how you would fit. In person interview. More of the same. Then nothing. Got ghosted after 3 rounds of interviews. Had to email HR 3 times and copy all the managers/employees I talked to for them to finally send an automated "thanks for applying" email. Complete lack of respect. Could have at least apologized for the delay.
The ordinary interview process, it was not so stressful. First started to describe the process and then I was asked to talk about myself and how I fit to the position.
