Interviewed May 2011 in Sarajevo (Bosnia and Herzegovina) (took 2 days)
Very bad approach from the Line Manager. As this was internal application, Line Manager refused all NSN employees and employed someone from the outside. It was bad picture towards all local employees that they can not get promoted nor upgraded to the better position. After 3 months of the probation, the person that was initially employed was fired due to the lack of communication skills as he didn't manage to become part of the team. This is clear sign that hiring procedure is bad.

Interviewed Oct 2009 in Bangalore (India) (took 2 days)
The questions were asked on the work experience, related experience on the similar profile, reason of looking for a change. There were 3 round of interviews, starting from the HR round, first level with the technical manager and the final round with the Finland based team through video conferencing. The questions were detailed and one of the questions was:
"How do you think about your knowledge on the tools and skills to effectively carry out the required role of a Project Procurement Manager"
Answer: First of all should have the basic knowledge on Procurement processes, effective negotiation skills and a detailed program management knowledge from concept to execution including first pilot, final pilot and then the ramp-up. The exact tools can be used as MS Project to plan, schedule and execute the project technique.
The office atmosphere is very nice and the interviewing team looked quite composed and well-learned. Was a good experience.

Interviewed Jan 2008 (took 4 weeks)
I was referred to the position by a colleague.
Following a phone interview I was invited to speak 1:1 with three different managers.
Mostly questions about prior experience and if I was truly interested in the position.
Best advice is find someone in the company that you know can vouch for you. It is very difficult coming in as an unknown.
