I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Medtronic (Northridge, CA) in Aug 2016
Interview
I went through 2 interviews. One by phone and one in person on-site. I was told I was a top 5 candidates for the position I was applying for. I interviewed in person with the executive and then I heard nothing. I followed up with them and they told me someone internally had expressed an interest in the position. 30 days later I still had not heard back from them at all. Not in writing, nothing. If you go to a 1 on 1 interview they are required by law to inform you if you were selected or not. I received NOTHING. In fact, when I inquired 60 days later they still gave me some song and dance about an internal candidate. But yet the position was still being recruited for. Most bizarre. I was contacted by an internal recruiter for this position. I did not apply for it. I was amazed at the lack of professionalism by the Medtronic recruiters. If they cant even get the interview process down right, how can they be doing a good job at anything? All things happen for a reason. This is not the type of company I would want to work for. They seem to be flying by the seat of their pants. NO THANKS.
