Interview
From beginning to end, the process was disorganized and disjointed. There were so many red flags:
1. The role I interviewed for had been open for more than a year.
2. Almost 2 months passed before I heard from a recruiter about next steps. Mentally, I had moved on. I had no indication that I was still a candidate
3. I received travel information without prior knowledge that I would travel to interview! After bringing this up, the interview was canceled.
4. Several other candidates dropped out of the running voluntarily.
I didn't get a sense that anyone really enjoyed his/her job. There was no connection and I almost felt that I was just and "oh well, last man standing" option. There was no sense of welcome or pride in the work that they do. No way I would work here if I had other options.
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Eaton
Interview
The interview process included a phone interview with recruiter, a phone interview with hiring manager, and 5 hours of in person interviews with various members of the HR function. The interview process was long and repetitive, several interviewers asked same questions. They interview internal and external candidates within same process which may pose a disadvantage to external individuals looking to be considered.
