Behavioral Presentation
The hiring process was too long and lacked clear communication. Given it's a large, market-leading company, I expected a more organized and human approach from HR. I got the invite for the first interview after about a month, and the second stage only a month later. During this time, they only responded to my messages when I advanced to the next stage. After four months, including interviews and a case presentation, I received no feedback, not even a rejection, despite sending messages. This lack of feedback is frustrating and contradicts the company's stated values. Hiring processes are also employer branding experiences, and communicating well with candidates is part of their commitment to people.

Behavioral Presentation
It was a smooth process and they are truly a people-focused organization. Everyone was easy to work with and acted as ambassadors for the brand. I declined the offer because I had a conflicting offer from another company, but the process was great from a candidate's perspective.
