Globus Medical Interview Questions
& Process

I had an interview process with Globus for a Project Engineer role that involved 3 main stages. It kicked off with a recruiter screening call, which was pretty basic, just checking if I met the minimum job requirements. Then came a more detailed call with the hiring manager, where we reviewed my resume and discussed my experience in relation to their needs. After that, I was invited for a final, 5-hour in-person interview at their HQ. This final stage included a design project presentation to the team and then about six 30-minute sessions where I was questioned on my engineering skills, medical device experience, and general behavioral stuff. They also mentioned a design project would be involved, and I had to present it. The whole experience after the final interview was rough; they kept delaying the decision, gave mixed feedback, and eventually, after a month, I was told I didn't get the job without clear reasons. Also, their reimbursement process for the interview visit was not as advertised, only covering the hotel and not travel or food, which was a hassle.

The interview process was generally good, with everyone I met from the department being professional and engaged. However, the final interview with the production/distribution manager felt unusual because she primarily asked why I was looking to leave my current job. It turned out she knew someone on my management team personally. Soon after, my manager started discussing things I'd talked about in that interview, which made me worry about confidentiality. HR told me the next day that I didn't get the job. While I know people's professional circles can overlap, the way this was handled seemed inappropriate.

It was a long process, and it seemed like a .net shop throughout. The questions were very much related to scenarios or resume experience. The first interview was a 30-minute recruiter screen, not technical at all. The second interview was with the hiring manager, lasted 45 minutes, was pretty technical and somewhat based on resume experience. The last interview was a panel interview with 3 lead and senior engineers on the team.

I applied for the job and a month later, the recruiter emailed me for a phone screen. I scheduled it for the next day, but the recruiter was delayed and asked to reschedule. We rescheduled, and during the call, I was asked about my project experience, my availability to start immediately, and if I was okay with proceeding to an onsite interview. I confirmed yes to all, and was led to believe the position was critical and needed to be filled quickly. I waited a week for an update but heard nothing. After sending a follow-up email, I received no response. Essentially, the recruiter ghosted me.
