I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Philips in Dec 2011
Interview
First round was a phone interview with the HR recruituer. Second round was a 30 minute 1:1 interview with hiring manager, followed by an hour panel interview. Interviews contained general questions and behavioral questions. It is very helpful to have detailed questions to ask the interviewers at the end of the interview. Final round was 30-40 minute presentation and some follow-up questions. It took a while to hear back about the team's decision. I placed several phone calls/emails with the recruiter before I received an answer.

Question 1
Tell me what you would take into account when pricing a product.
I sent in the application and successfully passed the initial screening process. After that stage was completed, they asked me to complete a HireVue interview along with an additional assessment as part of the next steps.
Okay, the HireVue interview was interesting. Consisted of 4 questions about competencies and skills. There were questions about handling feedback, what you would do in certain situations etc. The games included numerosity and shapedance.

Question 1
Tell us about a time you received feedback from your teammates; how did you react?
It was ok, just the regular questions one would expect. I didn’t go through the philips system though, i worked at one of the companies philips bought later on. Not much to say about it really
