I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Abbott (Longford, Longford) in Jun 2015
Interview
3 one to one interviews 30 minutes each, one with HR and 2 technical or hiring staff. The interview went well however I was not successful.
The company has a policy of not giving feedback and letting the candidate know by email whether or not they have been successful. But it takes a month before you find hear the outcome. In the meantime I got a job offer with another company but I wanted to know the result from Abbott before accepting the new job. I emailed HR if they could let me know the outcome of my interview - this was 4 weeks after my interview and I got no response. I find that disrespectful.
