Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Covidien.
Intern
I was contacted by the hiring manager and then went on to successive interview rounds. They were very professional and were responsive during the whole process. Because I was not able to be on-site for the interviews, they tagged on a few extra phone interviews to make sure that I was the right fit for their company.
- Can you share your experiences from living or studying abroad?
- What programming experience do you possess?
Intern
I found the role on their website and applied. Then, the company reached out to me through email. They asked me to do a phone interview, which was about 30 minutes long. Right after that, they contacted me to set up an on-site interview. Once I got there, they gave me a quick tour and then I met with the manager and the team I would be joining.
- What makes you a better candidate than others?
Intern
The interview process was super simple and easy. It started with a phone interview with HR, then I had another interview with the manager, and to finish, I interviewed with three team members. Mostly, they just reviewed my resume and asked questions based on it. They also asked some easy behavioral questions.
- Can you tell me about the biggest risk you've ever taken?
