Behavioral Presentation

For a Process Chemist role, Covestro in Baytown, TX had a two-step interview process. It started with a phone screening, then an on-site interview with a presentation. The interviewers were professional and the mood was calm. After the on-site, I followed up for about a month. I got one reply saying they were still deciding, and then silence on further emails. The job was re-posted, which felt like they weren't transparent. It's a bummer to put in so much prep and presenting time and then get no communication. I hope they get better at talking to candidates.

Behavioral Presentation

Online interview with HR, then an online interview with the manager, followed by an in-person interview. It was very straightforward. The manager interview involved presenting a free-topic subject, and it was relaxed and open to questions. They presented the company, salaries, and benefits during the first contact, and didn't create unrealistic expectations.

Finally, a medical check-up followed by a contract offer.
