Philips surprised me with the quickest 1 week turnaround I have ever seen in the recruitment process, and this is during the height of Coronavirus pandemic in May/Jun 2020, which impressed me and was a deciding factor over another role. (I have had hundreds of interviews and maybe even over a thousand applications over my 20+ years career with job search during various transition periods in my life; and previously worked at two Fortune 500 companies before Philips, with internal and external interviews.) It took Philips only exactly 1 week from when HR reached out on a Monday, through a few rounds of immediate phone/virtual video interviews, to an offer the very next Monday; with various prompt replies and informative communications during this 1 week (and after into onboarding). In contrast: Almost all other companies/opportunities panicked/scrambled during the pandemic, having cancelled last minute (one other company even confirmed the day before the interview, I showed up after almost 1hr drive away, and as I was walking towards the front door... one of the interviewers came out in a rush to tell me they changed their minds about in person interview, please turnaround and they'll look at rescheduling)... Or kept rescheduling and dragging the process out by weeks or even months (another company cancelled/rescheduled 3 times and dragged it out over several months)... Or just not easily adapted to moving to virtual recruiting process as quickly and as seamlessly (one company even resisted technology and still kept holding out hope, keeping candidates waiting with "maybe we'll see about in person interviews soon" then weeks and months pass and they still continue to express interest but were unsure how/when to proceed next steps, even after I was already employed otherwise, I heard back a few months later asking if I was still interested that they're still trying to figure out next steps)... Or ended up in limbo/nowhere/stalled, disappeared and went silent (got "ghosted".... Philips was different, very efficient, and that really stood out! Interviews were fine, fairly easy/average - Nothing overly technical on the questions. They knew what they were hiring for and had great urgency in filling the role, and it was mutually good timing. The conversations and Q&A after going over resume and prior experience (if at all) were more around culture and fit, future expectations.
