The hiring process at Novo Nordisk has been quite disappointing. The long delays in communication give off a vibe of disorganization and not really respecting candidates' time. It also became pretty clear that the people handling recruitment seemed unprepared, often giving unclear directions and conflicting info. The slow response times just make the whole experience more stressful than it needs to be and leave candidates feeling like their time isn't valued. For a company as big and well-known as Novo Nordisk, you'd expect a more organized, straightforward, and quicker recruitment process to be the norm. If they could improve these things, it would make the candidate experience way better and be more in line with the company's global status.

The team was really nice and made me feel welcome. I liked talking with them, but I figured out the job wasn't for me. They wanted someone more junior, and I'm looking for something with more responsibility.
