I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Stryker (Los Angeles, CA) in Dec 2020
Interview
The interview process is extremely long and thorough - do not expect a decision in a couple of weeks. Phone interview with a recruiter, phone introduction with the regional manager, then you will have to take the Gallup (as I'm sure you know by past reviews is pass/fail - no real way to study for this except to chat with people who have taken it before). After that, I have several video interviews with various Sales Representatives and leaders in the Stryker space. After about 2 months, I was told they were going with a different candidate.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
"Why Stryker?"
"Why this devision specifically?" (there are a lot - make sure to sell why you want to be in the sector you applied for)
"Are you a competitive person?"
"Are you a winner?"
Just had my phone interview, I think it went well. Basic questions why medical device sales why Stryker etc. and some behavioral questions. going to the next step now, so far so good
I applied online. I interviewed at Stryker (Vancouver, BC) in Apr 2026
Interview
Interview was conducted remotely from a representative outside of the country. While I understand the company is a large corporate entity, the Interview process felt impersonal and like the role itself was not particularly important

Question 1
Please give an example of one time you worked as a member of a team to solve a problem.
I was emailed to interview for a position in my city. I spent 2 days preparing and took time off from my current position only to get a call from the recruiter that the position i was interviewing for was filled already. They wanted to know if i was interested in relocating cities. I found the lack of communication to be very strange. A simple email would've been productive as i was super excited about the opportunity to even get the interview! Disappointing!
