I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Medtronic (Woburn, MA)
Interview
I am very disappointed with the HR/ Staffing folks at Medtronic. I have applied for a position in the past, and never received any communication from them even though I was a referral candidate. I applied again for a 2nd time (months later), and again I had my resume referred now by 2 different current employees and still no word from the Talent Acquisition group.
Employee referrals are a testament to the employee's network, work ethic, and ability to identify like-minded individuals & they save significant sourcing time and money for recruiters. Typically recruiters reach out with at least a courtesy call or even an email but not at Medtronic, not a word! Recruiters have a hierarchy of the people they’re going to look at, if you’re referred, you’re generally going to go to the top of the pile but Medtronic must not practice this philosophy.
The job posting is no longer active so I assume the job has been filled.
It was very thorough. It seems like they have the process fully figured out-- but that seems to create little wiggle room for candidates that are out side of their hiring criteria .
