I applied for a Senior Manager position at Amgen and went through three rounds of interviews. The entire interview process was extremely slow, with long gaps between each round and no proactive communication from the recruitment team. Even after completing all three rounds, I did not receive any feedback. When I followed up after a week, I was informed that someone else had already been hired and their background check was in progress — which was surprising, as I had just attended my final round a week earlier. This experience reflects a lack of transparency, coordination, and respect for candidates’ time. Communication before and after interviews was minimal, and there was no clarity or closure provided. I hope Amgen improves its hiring process to be more transparent, timely, and considerate toward candidates.
