J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 2 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez Novartis
Entretien
The ghosting described by the anonymous poster on Mar 9, 2022 was exactly my experience!
In addition, there was pressure from HR for me to formally apply before a certain deadline, misinformation about headcount and timelines, haphazard interview scheduling, no clarity on next steps, and no responses to multiple follow-up emails.
Like the other poster, I am shocked and disappointed that a company of Novartis' stature could be so disrespectful towards another professional.

2 calls with HR, then 2 calls with HM, several 1:1 meetings with panel spread over 2 weeks, then 2 calls with HM, then zero further communication. Very disappointing experience, could have been much more efficient.

J'ai passé un entretien chez Novartis (Washington, DC)
Entretien
The interview started with a recruiter and continued with the hiring manager for 30 minutes. It was a collegial discussion with general questions about my background and experience. I felt that it went well, but I was not moved to the next interview. It seemed that a decision probably had already been made in advance of the meeting,
