Abbott Vascular R&D Engineer Interview

Posted Nov 9, 2011

No Offer – Interviewed in Santa Clara, CA Aug 2011 – Reviewed Nov 9, 2011

Interview Details – Initial phone screen led to 1:1 interviews with 4 team members, including hiring manager. Both technical/science and generic behavioral interview questions. Advice to other interviewees: know your stuff for the particular area of R&D/engineering. Work culture is pretty typical: close within small group, and more distant in overall organization. I would say that Abbott is cooler than some other large medical device companies, but still lack the intimacy and nimbleness of start-ups.

Interview Question – Pretty typical questions: how do you deal with a difficult situation, greatest accomplishment, etc.   Answer Question

Other Details - I applied through a recruiter and the process took a day.
