Manager at Philips Healthcare
Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Bothell, WA Aug 2009 – Reviewed Apr 4, 2013
Interview Details – Phone interview with recruiter to filter, then face to face with hiring manager, then face to face (one on one) with other departments 'peers'. Can take a while. Don't hear back from the recruiter. Need to reconnect with them to get information even when you are the candidate that eventually gets chosen.
Interview Question – Using behavioral interview techniques. Need to respond with specific examples not generalities. It's tough to always have specific examples ready. Answer Question
Negotiation Details – Very little negotiation available. Policies are set at a global level with little room.

Software Developer at Philips Healthcare
Accepted Offer – Reviewed Feb 2, 2013
Interview Details – The interview process was made up of three phases. First, the phone screen interview was done with a technical person highly knowledgeable about the job requirements and the project. I believe it was the architect. Once approved, I was invited for the second phase of 3 interviews in a row. A lot of technical drilling. Once approved I was invited for another set of 3 interviews equally as drilling in technical topics.

Field Marketing Manager at Philips Healthcare
Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Nov 2011 – Reviewed Jan 21, 2013
Interview Details –
I started with an informational interview, then got a formal interview because recruiting is very slow. My phone interview was a formality as I already knew they wanted to interview me but the recruiter asked general skills and background info as well as salary requirements.
In person interview was in 2 parts, one on one with the hiring manager and then a panel interview. Nothing too challenging. I appreciated meeting the panel because these would become my peers and people I would be spending a majority of my time with so it was a good opportunity to feel each other out.
Follow up with recruiter and securing offer, salary, start date, etc was a hassle. They are not very quick so be patient!
Interview Question – what is the last business book you enjoyed reading? and why? Answer Question
Negotiation Details – Negotiations were frustrating because everyone wanted to leave the office for Christmas break... Not a lot of room to negotiate. Got the median pay for my band.
