I applied through other source. I interviewed at Medtronic (Bologna) in Aug 2019
Interview
Il primo colloquio si è svolto telefonicamente in inglese. L’Operatore è stato molto molto gentile e disponibile nel fissare l’appuntamento in un orario consono alle mie esigenze.
Dopo il primo colloquio il profilo è stato passato alla General Manager della business unit per fissare un appuntamento di persona.

Question 1
How have you navigated cross-functional collaboration in a matrixed organization?
El proceso fue rápido, era una posición junior en la que no se pedia apenas experiencia. Todo fue rápido y sencillo, no tengo ninguna queja. El entrevistador fue muy cercano en todo momento, nada agresivo.
