KARL STORZ interview questions

I applied through an employee referral and then was reached out to by a hiring manager. After a brief phone discussion, I was encouraged to apply online. I went through a short phone interview with someone in HR before scheduling an on-site interview. The on-site interview was 1 hour with a panel of 5 engineers. All were very friendly and asked questions related to my current work to see if there was a technical fit. At the end of the interview, I was told they would contact me within a week to tell me if there was going to be a final interview (focus on cultural fit). When the hiring manager did not contact me, I reached out to him a week later. I received no response for over a month until I was told that things were still moving in the system. I never heard from the hiring manager again who wouldn't give me a revised timeline. Two months later I got a hold of someone in HR that said they were selecting final candidates in a week. Two weeks after that I reached out again and was told that I was declined for the job. The red flag for me in the process was the poor communication experience I had with the hiring manager which I must admit is at least better than companies that do not communicate at all with declined candidates.

It was a long process that was dragged out. I went three weeks with following up and heard nothing back for awhile. It was straight forward though and they did not give cognitive tests or anything crazy like that. It was as simple as it should be; If they like you, youre hired
