Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Terumo.
Product Development Engineer
So the interview process started pretty standard. A recruiter reached out to me. I had an initial HR screening, then I had two more interviews with different leaders in the division. One of the interviewers made some not-so-great comments about my current employer. They were pretty quick with scheduling and communication was good right up until after the second interview. Then, radio silence. I tried following up a few times but never heard back. It felt kinda unprofessional.
- Can you give me an overview of your professional background?
- Could you elaborate on your familiarity with Gauge R&R?
Software Engineer
The questions in the interview are pretty easy and straightforward. The interviewers also take a good amount of time to explain the role and the projects you'd be working on. Make sure you're ready to talk about what's on your resume.
- What are your strengths and weaknesses?
- Tell me about why you decided to apply for this position.
Software Engineer
After reviewing your resume, the manager will give you a call if they think you're a good fit. They'll ask a few standard questions about work authorization and your availability, then ask you to schedule an in-person interview. This interview isn't like the typical behavioral or technical interviews you might expect, as they don't think those always lead to good hiring decisions. If you're a University of Michigan grad, they seem to assume you're competent and won't probe you with lots of technical questions. Essentially, the manager will discuss the role's overview and what you need to do to be successful, then prompt you to share your thoughts and ask them questions. This interview style was a culture shock; it can be intimidating to just be asked to talk without any direction on what to discuss or ask. They're also okay if you decide the job isn't for you after learning more about it. Overall, it felt like they were assessing your cultural fit rather than trying to find weaknesses.
- Now that I've gone over the job overview and what it takes to succeed, it's your turn to speak.
