Disorganized. Interview did not seem to know what the role they were hiring for should do. Communication and followup process was rough. Pretty disappointing experience for such a big company.
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Merck (West Point, PA) in Sep 2011
Interview
It was the most efficient interview and hiring process I have ever encountered. The 1:1 interview took about a half day with a one-hour teleconference with HR on a separate day. Offer was extended to me a few days later. The key is that they really know what they are looking for to fill the position and don't waste any time on decision making process.
