I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at W. L. Gore & Associates

Interview

they drilled me about one internship experience and tried to find my weak points. This really stressed me out because they kept asking technical questions. I was expecting the first interview to be not technical and just behavioral but it was more technical then expected which def caught me off guard.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at W. L. Gore & Associates

Interview

My experience during the recruitment process was very positive, even though I did not get the job. I received the first phone call from the talent acquisition specialist within a reasonable time after sending the application (about one week). He asked me several questions to see if I could fit in with what he was looking for and scheduled a further interview with the hiring manager. The Gore team sent me a detailed email with all the necessary information. They even give you the option to have a test call. During the interview, I felt very comfortable. The hiring manager's questions were appropriate to know more about my experience. The questions focused on my soft skills were directed by the HR person. I felt very comfortable as if I was already part of the team. I was thinking: "I hope I get it." In less than a week, they called me to give me feedback on why I didn't continue in the process, something that very few companies do.

I interview with this place about a week and a half ago. I think it went well and in the interview she said the next step would be a writing example, so I did that. Sent it to them the day it was due and haven't heard back since. She did say any next steps would be after thanksgiving since everyone was busy and their calendars full last week. I followed up on Monday with an email, but haven't heard back. Maybe it's taking awhile or should I try again end of week? I would at least like feedback.

I was promised a decision made by mid last week. I followed up on Thursday last week and got a response the update is now followed up with the hiring manager and their director and expect hear back by middle of next week. What should I be expecting if it’s delayed on promised update timeline from the hiring manager interview?
