I applied online. I interviewed at Stryker in Mar 2026
Interview
I had a very positive experience throughout the initial stages of the interview process, and the recruiter and earlier interviewers were professional and engaging. However, my experience changed significantly during the third round with the hiring manager.
The hiring manager joined the interview and mentioned they had not yet reviewed my resume, which was surprising given the stage of the process and came across as condescending and not very respectful. Throughout the conversation, the tone felt dismissive and disengaged, and it did not feel like there was genuine interest in learning about my background or experience. The interaction came across as though a decision may have already been made prior to the interview.
I was very excited about the opportunity going into the next round, so this was disappointing. I understand that hiring decisions can be competitive, but I believe candidates at this stage of the process deserve a level of preparation and engagement that reflects the time and effort they’ve invested.
There are five to six stages! First a recruiter, then hiring manager, then personality test, then your actual boss, then a group Interview. The entire process takes about 1.5 to 2 weeks. Some people have to do a case study as well.
I applied through other source. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Stryker
Interview
Very casual phone calls and coffee chats. The gallup is hard and questions can be ambiguous so talk to a rep beforehand and ask them about their experience and tips they have. For the most part it has been phone calls to understand who you are but make sure to sell yourself everytime.
The interview process has been great so far…my first one was a phone screening with their hiring manager. It was basic questions. Tell me about yourself. Why do you want to do medical sales who I’ve networked with etc. I then got moved on to an interview with their regional manager. The questions were tell me about yourself. What makes me different and then ended with behavioral questions that I focus using the star method to answer. I got moved onto the next round and now I’m waiting for an interview with the regional manager again, as well as other team members that I would be supporting. So far the interview process has been amazing and everyone I’ve met so far is great. I think as long as you have stories that you can tell about yourself as far as teamwork dealing with difficult situations from your past experience and how I think strategically is really important.
