I applied online. I interviewed at Henkel (Nieuwegein)

Interview

The recruitment process was very well handled. The recruiter was very friendly and supportive in the process and really helped with any questions and concerns that I had. The structure was straightfoward and nothing was incredibly difficult. First two interviews were online and then I had to do a business case at the office itself. Last step was having a short call with someone high in the organization and then having a call in which the recruiter presented the offer.

Application

I applied online. I interviewed at Henkel (Los Angeles, CA)

Interview

I applied for the role online and got a call from an HR rep to set up a brief screening call. The following week we did a brief 15-20 min phone call. The next was a video call with the hiring manager for the role and that was about 45 mins. Then the next round involved doing a project and then presenting it on a video call. The final round was an in person interview with 4 different team members. A few days later I received a rejection call. I then saw that the job posting has been up for over a year and that they reposted the job the following week after I got rejected. The job's compensation and benefits seemed good and their hybrid schedule was nice as well. However, I wish they were a little more transparent on how long the interviewing process would take including the project and that they gave a bit more notice on when they wanted to do an in person interview. I did not know an in person interview was required until a week before it was scheduled. Over the course of 2 months it was about approx 15 hours of interviewing including the time it took to do the project. It was pretty intense for a mid-level role. I'd also ask before interviewing how long the role has been vacant for and when they're looking to fill it. Everyone I had interviewed with was very nice and the HR rep was very responsive.

Negative Experience
Difficult Interview
Application

The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Henkel (Nieuwegein)

Interview

First round phone interview was very pleasant, but it only went downhill from there. Job was advertised in English, first interview was in English, but from the second interview everything was in Dutch. Conflicting information was given about the requirements of Dutch and English in the job. In fact, the requirements for the job seemed to be ever changing, as I had a completely different impression in the second interview compared to the third. Second online interview was fine. Third in-person interview was not a pleasant experience. Rude interviewer who seemed very disengaged and had very different expectations from what was advertised in the job description. In the in-person interview 3 new follow-up interviews had suddenly been added (nothing was mentioned about them before). No discussion of salary, seems they were keeping that for the very end. Interview process was not transparent or honest. They seemed to keep adding more and more interviews, changing the job requirements, and lengthening the process after each step. Seemed like a great opportunity at first but that clearly changed at the end.

The lower the temperature, the higher the impact: Henkel has developed an innovative low temperature cleaner for aluminum beverage cans that will soon be available globally. When used in traditional spray systems, Bonderite C-IC 72000 series cleans at a lower temperature, reducing natural gas use and in turn, lowering the plant’s carbon footprint. Results will vary from plant to plant based on their processes, however during a recent trial, a customer reduced their natural gas use which contributed to a 38% reduction in their carbon emissions.
