One of the weirdest interviews I've ever had because of how unfriendly and awkward this manager was. Completely uninterested in the answers I gave, mgr was staring at the ceiling at one point and barely made eye contact anytime I spoke. Bad personality, never cracked a smile for a second, to say "dry" personality would b an understatement. I'm pretty sure this manager would be a holy terror and not someone I want to work for.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Alcon
Interview
Zuerst ein telefonisches Interview mit HR (sanity check), dann die 2te Runde mit HR & Line Managern und dann nochmal einen erarbeiteten business case vorstellen. Spontanes Rollenspiel zu potentiellen Kundengesprächen mit den Produkten. Sprachkenntnisse werden geprüft.

Long, it took about 2 months, but the the hiring manager was great. Great interactive interviewing style and always kept me up to date on the process. I didn't have to do a presentation, but I know that most managers make you sell an organic wine.
