Johnson & Johnson Interview Questions & Reviews

Interview Details I made an online application with my CV and cover letter. Heard back after 8 weeks and got invited for numerical online assessment. 4 weeks later, I was called by the hiring assistant who said I have an informal telephone interview with the medical affairs manager. I prepared answers based on my CV and was really excited to give the interview. On the phone before getting to the interview questions, the manager wants to confirm my visa status and eligibility to work. Then mentions we can not hire international students, only British/EU, as the company does not sponsor. A tip for the future: Please save us people some time and effort and mention this on the career website beforehand. A complete waste of time.

Interview Details Initial interview 1 hour around CV, typical interview questions. 2nd Interview case study presentation.

Interview Details Applied online with CV, Cover Letter,2 supporting questions. Received a call from HR coordinator 2 days later to arrange initial telephone screening interview with HR specialist. 1st interview one week after submitting online application, went well, was told on the phone I would be progressed to next stage. 1 week after: 2nd phone interview with Senior Product manager, went well, was told I would be progressed to the next stage. 1 week after, skype interview (I was abroad) with VP skincare. 1 hour alone to work through a business case study (Venezuelan wine company looking to enter the UK and European markets - propose sales and marketing strategy and recommendations etc). 15 minutes to present it, 15 minutes Q&A. 30 minutes general interview questions on motivation etc.
Never got feedback on this interview, either by phone or email despite 1 email and 1 voice mail to the HR coordinator as to the outcome of the interview...

Interview Details I originally got told of the offer through a recruiting agency.
Passed a series of online tests, then an interview on-site that consisted of a presentation on a case (preparation time: 1h) then group interview with questions regarding background, skills (challenges of consumer good industry, decentralized organisation, etc). Then I had a final phone interview with managers which was a fairly forward interview (strengths, weaknesses, etc).

My perception of the company: Business oriented but in a casual environment. People-driven and rather open. Care is a key value, and visible in the people as well.

Interview Details Went through 4 rounds of interview (screening, two HR rounds, and one last one with the engineers). Pretty straight forward, open ended questions about back ground and professional experience.

Negotiation Details – Not flexible, but have no complaints.

Interview Details Directly send a CV to the human resource, after s week I get an interview from the company. There are 7 persons competing this position. After the first interview. 3 of us are selected for the second interview, which is by the head manger. I am lucky to get the job.

Interview Details Process - interview, case study, interview, testing, offer.
Long process that took over 1 month and quite tough but expected questions. Strong focus on commercial and consumer understanding.

Interview Details Applied for the job through the company portal and received an email from someone requesting a phone interview. Phone interview went great and was told that I would receive a follow up in about 2 weeks. I followed up, but it ended with no offer.

Interview Details Interview style may vary. If you are following a traditional career path for sales, marketing, IT, etc... it is easier to get hired. Internal candidates get the preference and networking with key stakeholders will give you the edge. Difficult to move between operating units. An example is going from Consumer to Pharma, not an easy transition unless you have the stars aligned.
