I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PepsiCo (Barcelona) in Nov 2022
Interview
I went thru a spontaneous call by the recruiter ,then a 2 hours online exam (softskills) and another interview. Very smooth and natural Always had a person to contact to directly for questions
My interview process was very smooth and straightforward. My interviewers made me feel very comfortable and asked all of the general basic behavioral questions. It consisted of a behavioral format with two people from the office I was applying to.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at PepsiCo
Interview
Scheduling was a disaster. The recruiters and coordinators are not US-based and will call at random times from random numbers but won’t leave voicemails.
Hiring manager screen followed by 1.5 hours of browser-based personality quiz virtual onsite with 5 team members. Went through the full interview loop with supposedly very positive feedback and that they were deciding which team would make an offer. Then never heard back. Followed up after 5 weeks out of curiosity and was told they weren’t moving forward. Absolute waste of time.
