Application
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Givaudan (New York, NY) in Mar 2018
Interview
Place seemed welcoming enough. I went for an interview at their Manhattan office and was seen by two managers. Was asked about my background, my interest in fragrances, and the first interviewer tested my math skills (percentage and proportions problems). I left with a positive impression but I guess not enough of one since I wasn't contacted. Can't be mad though, that's just business.
I was told the interviewer had to reschedule a day before the interview, then during the interview he took personal calls. Asked me what I was doing before interview and what I was going to do after the interview was over. Also randomly asked if I was nervous. Thought the whole interview was weird and was happy not to get the position.
