Probably the worst process any company has ever put me through. I had a recruiter screen, hiring manager screen, district manager screen, engineer screen, technical quiz which required over 30 hours of studying, and then a 45 minute long final presentation which took over a week of preparation only to be given a generic rejection telling me they went with someone else and would keep my information on file and refer me to their other positions as they open up. Never again will I let a company waste my time like Medtronic did and give me the absolute disrespect of a generic rejection after the amount of effort I put in. Six interviews has to be a joke and they were just testing if I was enough of a fool to keep showing up.
I applied online. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Medtronic (New York, NY)
Interview
Like many I applied through an employee referral. The whole process turned into a 5+ month marathon with 12 interviews in total. Many of the interviews were scheduled last minute so be prepared to drop everything and run.
After months and months of back and forth contact, the position I had been interviewing for was dissolved. The real kicker is, no one had the decency to tell me this directly which thought was rather unprofessional.

Question 1
How do you deal with a colleague whom you do not get along with?
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Medtronic (Utah, TN) in Mar 2026
Interview
Pretty straight forward just a super long process. Multiple phone calls and in person meet ups. Overall not very challenging though. Just took like 2 months to get an answer. Good experience overall though.
6 week process, started with recruiter screen, hiring manager zoom, then field ride with rep. I also networked with the current local CS team with phone calls. They encouraged me to do as many informational interviews as possible with the local team.
