I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Stryker (Hamilton, ON) in Oct 2016
Interview
Interviewed face to face with recruiter. It was pleasant and went very well. Unfortunately, the hiring manager was not available. After few days, I was informed that I'm overqualified for the position based on my previous working experience. Looks to me that the hiring manager want to protect his job. Not a good leadership trait. Great leader brings someone to their team better than them to be successful.They should have known from beginning if I'm overqualified and never wasted time on the interviews.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Stryker (Amsterdam) in Jun 2025
Interview
1. online application 2. HR screening 3. Teams meeting with a team lead 4. Gallup assessment 5. Teams meeting with a department head and a team member
It went smoothly for the most part, especially because they employ a bot to schedule calls. However, I had been ghosted for more than a month after the last round of the interview, after multiple follow-up emails and calls to the HR personnel. I withdrew my application at the one-month mark, but they also do not react to it at all. They are responsive until you are not chosen.
