I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Lenovo (Raleigh, NC) in Feb 2025
Interview
Was referred by someone in my network and encouraged to apply from the director but then was told no when I shared my salary expectations. They said they would reach out a better fit opened up. A job did open up asking for my experience but they never reached out. I wasn’t impressed by them enough to put myself out there a second time
