I applied online. I interviewed at Alcon in May 2024
Interview
2 rounds of interview - 1 online and 1 face-to-face. Overall experience was good as they were easy to converse with. The interview was more about getting to know the interviewee as a person, to see if this person's values and behaviour aligns with their teams'.
I applied through university. I interviewed at Alcon
Interview
First started with a standard phone screening, which led to an invitation for an on-site tour.
Unfortunately, the guide seemed pretty mean and rude throughout the entire walkthrough of the manufacturing site.
Continuing after the tour, I was ushered into two more interviews with other engineers and engineering managers.
Keying in on leadership, they asked a lot of questions about how you would convince people to do your work.
Yet, during my time there, it appeared that they have a serious workplace culture crisis.
Outright, they are not agile at all, and any open ideas from the team are treated as highly doubtful.
Unfortunately, I was ghosted right after this extensive process, leaving me with a very clear picture of their operation.
Typical questions. Ask you about GMP etc.Also ask you about your pass experience and working style . Interview was rather easy and reply very fast . questions ask is not that difficult
