I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Medtronic (Minneapolis, MN) in Mar 2012
Interview
Thorough! They have special conference rooms near the entry just for interviews. Several people interviewed me, none of them were trained interviewers, so it was casual for the most part. They really look for a good cultural fit as well as skill.
Contract position interview.
Interview was not structured in STAR or any format just free form.
Interview was given by 3 great individuals.
Questions were all job role based.
Great interview with a good bit of freedom to speak on your own background and give why you’re a good fit for their role
