The process was very unprofessional. The hiring manager reached out to me directly, under the assumption that I had spoken with the recruiter. The interview itself was kind of awkward and I was not asked a whole lot of questions. The hiring manager told me to expect to hear from the director for my next interview and I never heard anything again and eventually got my generic rejection email. I thought it was very unprofessional to tell an applicant they are being passed on to interview with the director and then never hear anything again.
Very straight forward. I met with the hiring manager and the national manager during the second interview. The second virtual interview was just a job offer so it qas pretty much only one interview.

Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto una settimana. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso CooperSurgical (Madrid) nel mese di mar 2023
Colloquio
First scanning interview was conducted by a Cooper Surgical business partner. Besides the usual questions (motivation, salary expectations, experience) I was asked about my personal situation (married? children?) and my age, questions that are illegal in job interviews in Spain. I was specially shocked because the recruiter was a woman. Besides, this type of questions are, at this time in history, absolute unneccesary. There have been now more than 4 generations of women who excelled at their jobs, with or without a family and regardless of their personal situation. When will this stop?
