Candidatei-me online. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa ApotheCom.
Entrevista
1) Initial phone interview with HR. About 30 minutes long. HR did most of the talking. 2) Writing test with a 1 hour time limit. Have to create summary of studies. 3) Video interview with hiring manager and other directors. Conversational. They want to get to know you better.

Entrevista
An informal HR introduction call to understand the company and your experience, followed by a writing test for 5hrs, and then finally a long wait to hear back if you do at all. The slow process and not getting back to people is an issue and the feedback often seems in-genuine and unprofessional.

Entrevista
I applied via the job post on LinkedIn. I had a short video call with an HR team member where he asked why I wanted the job, why I wanted to work for the company, expected salary, etc. He told me I would hear back within the next few days as they wanted the process to go very quickly. After about a week, I emailed him asking for an update. I received a quick response saying I have progressed on and would need to complete a writing test (7 days to complete) and an video interview with 4 team members. I thought the video interview went pretty well with typical interview and scenario questions. The day after the interview, I had a quick call with the HR guy who said the interview went very well and they would make a decision once all the candidates returned the writing test. He told me there were 3 candidates for 2 positions. He then also very quickly stated the salary which was lower than my expected salary but did not give me time to reply.
I returned the writing test within a few days and was told they would make a decision shortly. After a week of not hearing back, I emailed the HR guy for an update--no response. After 4 more days, I called the HR guy who said they "would make a decision within a day or two". This was more than 2 weeks ago now and haven't heard back.
Absolutely terrible to not follow up after an interview a required writing test. I completely understand if I wasn't chosen, but just send a quick email? I also read a few reviews of interviews of Apothecom and they have done this previously so this is shocking behaviour. And honestly, if they did offer me the position now I wouldn't take it. If this is how they value candidates during an interview process, I couldn't imagine how they value employees...
