Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 3 mesi. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Medidata Solutions (New York, NY) nel mese di mag 2015
Colloquio
Had a first round phone interview, then a second round in person interview, then had a third online meeting interview workshop. They did not give me a chance to prepare for the online presentation which required me to mock interview the panel and create a process from their interactions. The HR person kept leading me on telling me that he would let me know in a week, every week, until finally he just never got back to me. After a lengthy in person and online workshop, I thought they would at least have the decency to let me know a good old "thanks but no thanks" but apparently no.
Thank you for the feedback. We strive to give timely feedback and are sorry that, in this case, we did not close the loop in a timely manner. Medidata is growing and we have multiple qualified candidates in the interview process at the same time. We appreciate the time that candidates take to learn more about our company and career opportunities. We will make sure our hiring teams are aware of this issue and are dedicated to providing feedback for all candidates.

Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Medidata Solutions
Colloquio
Started with a phone screen (I was contacted by the recruiter online) which was fine, and then a hiring manager screen which was great, and then an onsite panel with different members of the team. One of the members I met in the panel was very cold, they would ask me about my experience and cut me off when I would start to answer their question saying we didn't have time - this happened for multiple questions (why ask if you don't want to hear the answer?). The recruiter in the debrief tried to lowball me and catch me off guard by saying 'x is the salary you're looking for?' which was a good 20k less than the lower end of my band (I had previously communicated the range multiple times) which really rubbed me the wrong way, very underhanded tactic. Also - this is minor, but they scheduled 3 hours of continuous interviews that went well into lunch time (up till 1.15 pm) without a break and without so much as a snack, which felt disrespectful. I had a bad feeling while I was being interviewed, and I'm glad I didn't get the offer because it did not seem like a place I'd want to work at.
