Be Yourself. Focus on your professional behavior . Dont fake . Be truthful. Highlight your achievments and best performances. Bausch and Lomb people are a bunch of good people who understand people and identifies and values their skills and knowledge. Work culture of any company comes with the kind of people it recruits , and so far we all have been lucky enough to gather a group of good natured and skillful people.
I recommend Bausch and Lomb to a person who is skilled and looks forward for working in a best company which does what it says.

Interviewed Mar 2012 in Greenville, SC (took 3 months)
I applied online. Took a week to get initial contact from HR, sent me a list of questions I had to fill out. I then had a phone interview with HR rep from corporate. After that I had a phone interview with a hiring manager. Then I was brought on-site and interviewed with 5 people individually. Then had a phone screen with a VP from the location. And the last step was with VP from corporate. I didn't make the final cut. Overall was a very long process almost 3 months from start to finish. But I left with a positive impression of the company. Everyone was very professional, asked good questions and tried to make me feel comfortable and welcome. A smart group of people who know their jobs very well.

Interviewed Aug 2011 (took 3 weeks)
The process began with a 1 hour phone interview. It was basic, lots of situational questions, what do you know about us, etc. They phone interviewed 80 candidates for a local sales territory. The top 4 were then sent on for a face-to-face interview with a regional sales manager. I made it to the regional manager round, where there was a regional and a rep. It was more of the same type of questions, about an hour in length. I did not make it beyond this interview. An internal recruiter told me that they had someone with recent experience that would be a better fit. They did allow an expense report for expenses incurred getting to the interview which I thought was professional.

After several phone interviews and face to face inteviews, there has been no courtsey on part of HR to even provide feedback. Perfect example of having no respect for other people's time!!!!! Very unprofessional.

Interviewed Mar 2011 (took 4+ weeks)
Applied through school career site, I was immediately contacts for a phone screen. I was told after the phone screen they would be reviewing all candidates and inviting the top ones to the headquarters in Rochester, NY.
A few weeks later I was invited to Rochester I had a brief interview with someone in HR and then a 1:1 interview with the Vision Care Sales Manager and another 1:1 with the Vision Care VP. Both interviews went good. I was contacted the next week and told that I did not get the position. Like someone else mentioned even though this is an entry level position, they are looking for candidates with recent sales experience. Overall it was a great experience and I will be applying again in a couple years when I get some experience under my belt.

Interviewed Jan 2009 in Saint Louis, MO (took 1+ week)
I interviewed for a Manufacturing Engineer position. There were a total of 2 interviews, one was a panel interview (non scripted) with the Senior Manufacturing Engineer and the Engineering Manager. I had a formal interview with the HR manager. The interview with the engineering guys was to determine if I was capable of doing the work and did not factor in culture and fit with was probably the responsibility of the HR manager.

Interviewed Feb 2010 in Rochester, NY (took a day)
Submitted my resume online and had a phone screen a few days later with a contract recruiter. In the phone screen:
- The job was described to me
- I was asked about my "ideal role"
- Asked if I was able to work in a matrix environment
- Asked if I had pricing experience
- Asked how my colleagues would describe me
Then we discussed my career progression and I was asked about a desired salary range and provided with the expected range for this role.
A phone interview with the hiring manager was scheduled for about a week later. In the phone interview:
- The job was described to me as well as the organization of divisions at the company
- I was asked to walk the interviewer through my resume and to provide 1 or 2 highlights/ accomplishments for each role.
- Describing these accomplishments provided springboard opportunities for detail questions by the interviewer for me.
-Asked if I had previous P&L responsibility.
I asked how this position was available and was told they'd been running lean, as most companies have been, and were now beginning to staff up a bit. Was told they had a growing team and were interested in people bringing in new ideas and abilities.
I sent thank you emails within 24 hours after each interview to both the recruiter and the hiring manager, respectively. I was not contacted at all post interview, so after 3 weeks I sent a follow up email to the recruiter to inquire about the status of the role. I received an email reply the same day thanking me for checking in and letting me know that the hiring manager had decided to move forward with another candidate.
I was pleased with the responsiveness of the recruiter overall and both interviews were pleasant and good discussions. The only thing I am disappointed in is the lack of communication post-interview. It would have been nice to have been informed once I was no longer in consideration, rather than having to inquire weeks later. But overall, a good process.
