Anonymous Interview Candidate in Singapore
I interviewed at Brown-Forman (Singapore)
Hiring HR was based overseas and took some time to schedule our interview due to the time difference. HR was friendly and able to articulate the demands of the job as well as selling the company.

Entretien avec RH et puis avec le manager. La RH a dit qu'elle organiserait un deuxième entretien, mais elle ne l'a pas fait et n'a même pas répondu à son email pendant un mois.

Anonymous Interview Candidate
I interviewed at Brown-Forman
Extremely unprofessional process. After making it to the final round of interviews, the feedback I received was that I was "on the younger side" for the role (versus current employees in the business). That is not a valid reason - they knew my age at the time of my application so why make me go through rounds of interviews if that is an issue in the first place - not to mention age as a selection criteria is extremely old school, which this company seems to be. Welcome to the new age, it's 2023!
- Why are you interested in the role?

I applied online. I interviewed at Brown-Forman (Louisville, KY)
Overall, the interview process was quick and easy. It was not a structured interview with situational/behavioral questions. The atmosphere was casual and pretty relaxed. I heard back pretty quickly following the interview.
- Experience working in laboratory setting

First a HR screener call Second round: Situational interview (video) 1hr with hiring manager and HR “tell me about a time when..” Third round: Second situational interview (video) with two directors I was told if they needed to narrow down candidates further there would be a case study section but this was not required in the end
- Tell us about a time where you had to work with someone who you disagreed with

I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Brown-Forman in May 2023
Applied online, met the recruiter for a 45 minute interview (all behavioral questions). I had to follow up 2 weeks later because I did not get a response. The recruiter said I was moving onto the next round. My next interview was with the hiring managers (again, behavioral questions). I thought it went well. I reached out to the recruiter a week later and asked about the timeline of when to hear back, to which they responded they'd get back to me in 1-2 weeks. However, I never heard back from BF and it's been over a month. For a company that prides itself in its transparency and communication throughout the interview process, the fact that I've been ghosted is really disappointing.
- All behavioral questions & for the interview with the hiring manager, they prepare you in advance giving you the topics of discussion and how they'd like you to respond (STAR).

Anonymous Interview Candidate in Barcelona
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Brown-Forman (Barcelona) in Apr 2023
I've been contacted bu email after I applied by someone from HR out of the country (+39)where I applied for (Spain) and invited me to an interview with the local HR and the GBS - Lead PtP in Spain. I had the interview, which was telling about my CV and then questions related to different situations I've experienced to show my skills. They said thati they would contact me to inform if I continued or not on the selection process. After some weeks, I saw that somehow my application on their HR platform was withdraw (not that I have been rejected by them), something I never did, so I contacted them to ask about that and also about the selection process. I never received a reply, which shows the quality of the HR department at that compa y, and in some way, the quality of the company per se, because if they want to ensure what happens within the HR departmen, they can see KPIs and system changes that are WEIRD....

There wasn’t an initial essay screening, then a 30 minute phone interview, and finally a series of two on one interviews in place of a panel interview. Each of the final interviews were about an hour long.
- After the questions about qualifications, there was a lot of attention to culture fit.

Initial call with Acquisition Manager then a Video recording and essay style answers to a set of a role related questions, followed by an in-person interview responding to answers in the STAR format.
- Mostly 'describe a time' questions ...

Everything was very transparent throughout the process. There was an initial screening call, then a recorded video portion, and then video interviews with two sets of two people. Everyone was professional and the conversation was felt natural.
