Stryker DESIGN Engineer Interview Questions & Reviews

Interview Details Long process (approx. 25 days) having an overall 7-8 interviews.
2-3 telephonic rounds and 4-5 face to face.

Negotiation Details – I got what I asked for so no negotiation.

Interview Details Phone interview, phone Gallup interview (psychological), 3-hour in-person interview with 4-6 people

Interview Details Interview process was:

-Initial phone screening
-In person interview with the HM, their directer and the HR rep
-Gallup interview
-Follow Up
-Offer

Overall, a positive experience. The HR rep was quite friendly and helpful. The Gallup interview was by far the hardest part of the process. It's a tough interview and Stryker weighs its result heavily. This could quite frustrating for a well qualified candidate but who doesn't "fit" the Strkyer mould.

Reason for Declining – Better offer from another company.

Interview Details I received an email from a staffing agency for the position of design engineer in Stryker Medical. I sent my resume to them and that's how the process started.
The very first interview was the Pre-Technical round. It was a telephonic interview, which lasted about 15-20 minutes. In this round they want to know your level of technical knowledge. If one clears this round, one will get call for the next round.
The second round was Pre-Gallup round, which tests the psychometric ability of the candidate. It is also a phone interview. There are a lot of YES/NO type questions, but one has to justify one's answer giving examples from work-experience.
The third round was Main-Gallup round, which was again a telephonic one. This call was form Gallup organization and was very similar to the second round, the only difference is this is a recorded call and they analyse your answers.
Once you are through in this round, you will be asked to appear for Face to face interview (may be on Skype). I went to their office in person for this round.
The face-to-face round would be of pure technical type and it would last probably 2-2.5 hours.
The next round is HR interview.
Finally, an interaction with the Director and if you are through, you will be asked for salary negotiation.

Interview Details The interview started with the standard Stryker phone interview involving the gallup section that Stryker is known for as well as phone interviews with HR and a senior level engineer. I was told rather quickly after my phone interviews that I was accepted onto the next phase which included an on site interview. The one site interview was very fast and lasted only 4 hours total. Of that time, questions were directed at my background and experience for maybe 15 minutes. Everything else was focused on problem solving, group dynamics, and presentation skills. Because of this, the in person interview is almost impossible to train for. I would practice brainstorming activities and focus on timing your calculations and presenting your results at the end in preparations. Definately one of the most challenging interviews I had, but it was also interesting and fun.

Negotiation Details – Styker makes quick decisions and the negotation phase was not exception.

Interview Details Initial Phone interview with HR, Personality Profile conducted, 1-on-1 phone interview with potential manager and finally an on-site interview with 8 different people for 6 hours.

Interview Details Alot of behavioral questions. hard to say if i did well or not. but was rejected after the gallup.
