The interview process was pretty simple, no difficult questions. Just remember to answer questions using the STAR method and give lots of examples to support your stories. The whole interview process was fast. The recruiter I spoke with was friendly.

I applied for two roles at Bayer and after the second interview stage, I was completely ghosted. No rejection email, no communication from the hiring manager at all. Their whole dynamic shared ownership model seems super disorganized. Honestly, I'm kind of glad I didn't get an offer.

First, I chatted with a recruiter for about 15-20 minutes. After that, I spoke with someone from the hiring team. We went over some STAR questions, and talked about the territory and the job itself, like what it all involves. The whole phone call lasted around 30 minutes.
