Interview
In August of 2015 I applied for a Director level role thru their Career site. A recruiter kept me "warm" for 2 weeks and then talked to me for an hour, followed by interview with hiring manager for another 75 mins. They said "its a great fit and we would really like to go further with you". Then total silence. Neither the recruiter nor the hiring manager would return email messages with any information as of today, Feb 2016. I wonder why a company of Abbott's reputation would behave so poorly.

The initial interview consisted of a phone screen with the recruiter/ human resources' personnel. Within approximately seven to ten days, the second round interview was conducted virtually with the actual hiring manager using Microsoft Teams
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Abbott in Jul 2024
Interview
Recruiter contacted me to see if I was interested in a position at Abbott. Recruiter scheduled a meeting with me to discuss the role. Recruiter failed to show up to meeting.
When I reached out after our scheduled meeting to determine if the recruiter was still interested in discussing the role at Abbott, I was met with an apology and was asked if the next two days worked. I replied with availability, and never heard back again. I followed up a week later to see if the recruiter from Abbott was still interested in having a discussion, and received no response.
I hope the recruiter is OK. If they are OK and stuff got in the way like it did the first time, then this is definitely not the type of company I want to work for.
