Stryker interview questions

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.

I have interviewed for Stryker on 2 occasions. The 1st time years ago was great. Virtual recruiter screen, then hiring manager virtual interview, then a Gallup test, then a day of onsite interviews. I was treated well and communication was good but another candidate was chosen. The 2nd time recently was odd. The recruiter did not show up to our screen interview. No apology or explanation was given. I rescheduled using their scheduling tool. During the rescheduled interview, the recruiter showed up late, seemed to be struggling with English, and asked unclear questions as a result. When I asked for clarification on the questions, they were unable to provide more detail so I just had to answer the original question based off what I thought they may be asking. Afterwards I received an automatic rejection email. This role may not have been the best fit for me but the interview process was confusing and felt less respectful of my time than the last time I interviewed with them. The company seems like a great place to work, but the interview process could differ significantly depending on who the recruiter is
