Interview
Just over a week after applying I was asked for an interview with the recruiter. Phone interview was set shortly after that. Interview went well and I was told I was being recommended to the hiring manager for the next interview and should be contacted within 2 weeks to set that up. After 2 weeks of no word I followed up with recruiters and was told it was still in process and a few days later I was declined for the position without ever having the next interview.

What made you interested in working at this location?
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Johnson Controls (Plano, TX) in Nov 2019
Interview
The person mostly talked about the company and asked me questions about my resume. Personally thought the interview was good talked finished an hour and half later. Even if the interviewer says it was an amazing interview don't get your hopes up. Was very chill environment though.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Johnson Controls (Waynesboro, PA) in Aug 2019
Interview
I was contacted by JCI's recruiters initially through LinkedIn for a position that urgently needed to be filled. It seemed interesting from a technical perspective so I responded. I was at working full-time at a company. They contacted me multiple times, sometimes during work hours. The position was out of state, but I finally accepted to do a phone interview with the engineering manager, Interview went well and they wanted me for an on-site. I agreed to take time off work to do the interview but it was a 6 hour drive plus overnight stay at a hotel. I thought my interview went pretty well. It was mostly a technical interview plus some clarifications about my experiences. I got a tour of the facilities and interviewed a couple of other people in addition to HR. I was not crazy about the location. Couple of weeks later, I was finally notified that they were proceeding with a different candidate. I was not surprised because I think they could tell that I didn't like the location of the plant. However, I am annoyed that after contacting the recruiters multiple times, they never responded to my requests to be reimbursed for my hotel fees. I am shocked that a formerly fortune 500 company treats its candidates this way. The manager was clear that I would be reimbursed, but the recruiters have ghosted me despite multiple attempts.
