I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Colgate-Palmolive (New York, NY) in May 2011
Interview
The HR department was quite disorganized wiith the hiring and screening process. It took them over two months to issue out interview schedule after the deadline of the application. It took them over one month to issue out job offer notification after the interview.
Scheduling was terrible; poor communication with interview candidates; no notification that there could be an interview that is to be done over phone rather an in-person meeting.
The worst part was that when following up via phone. I get no return phone calls after leaving voicemails. When it is on the phone, they had no idea how far the screening process has progressed or how long it will take to give a definite answer. Very disappointed with the logistics and workflow of the HR department of a Fortune 500 company.
Quite the surprise and unexpected!
Interview asked many behavioral questions and background. Interviewers are are very courteous and professional in manner.

Question 1
How would you handle a difficult problem at hand with a team of people?
Really quick and easy interview process, spoke with HR, Manager and head of the team. Everyone was overall easy to interact with. My second interview was scheduled right after the initial one, and the third interview was scheduled the next day. I heard back about a week later.

I interviewed at Colgate-Palmolive (Lomas de Zamora)
Interview
Entrevista virtual no muy extensa con un pequeño formulario con preguntas en inglés donde evaluaban el nivel, muy sencillo. En cuanto a la entrevista, la chica de RRHH muy amable y cálida, se dió una charla con preguntas típicas de una entrevista laboral pero me sentí muy cómoda durante la misma.
