I applied online. I interviewed at McKesson (Mississauga, ON) in Nov 2023

Interview

The epitome of professionalism from the HR team. From beginning to end, nothing but great interactions, over the phone and panel interview, made me feel so comfortable and helped bring out the best in me. Privileged to be offered employment as a CCC and be part of such valuable organization.

Initial interview - nice recruiter but hiring manager looking for a specific skill/experience that was not specified in job requirements/breakdown made this a no go from the beginning and a waste of time for everyone involved.

Interview

I received an email response to my LinkedIn application, scheduled a phone interview for the following week. I thought the phone interview went well but didn't hear back one way or another. I was reviewing other job openings via LinkedIn and noticed the position I applied and phone interviewed for was "reposted." I contacted the interviewer and inquired about the reposted position and if there was any feedback she could provide and received a very general reply.

Easy Interview
Application

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at McKesson in Aug 2023

Interview

A recruiter did a cold reach out to me on LinkedIn. I received a very compelling email about how much my experience was a perfect match for the role. The recruiter was quick to set up a call. After the call, the recruiter was very positive and asked for me to send my résumé, which I did. Then, I was ghosted. I followed up three separate times over a period of three weeks with the recruiter, and did not even get the decency of a response to the follow ups. Why reach out and waste my time if you can’t even respond? Bad experience.

Interview Questions
  • Would you be interested in this role? And would you please send your résumé?

Accountant

I'm currently in a job (< 3 months) that I plan on leaving out (background, resume, mentions during interview) but one common question is "when can you start?" I don't want to tell them about my 90-day stay (very toxic, looking for an out), but don't want to find myself in a bind down the road either (picked up by background check, needing extra time to start so I can give my 2 weeks, etc.) My prior job was 9 months long and don't want to be a job hopper either so a little stuck here.

QC Specialist II

When someone says “We are eager to fill this position, we have no timeline but it should not drag out,” what are the chances I’m selected? This was at the third round interview, last Tue (5d ago) when I was told I should hear from HR next. The job was posted 30+ days ago. I applied for it on 10/22 and the interview process started 11/6 with an HR screening phone call.
