I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Henkel (Vienna) in Mar 2015
Interview
The interview process was very brief. I had one telephone interview with the purchasing manager. The call took around 40 minutes and mainly covered standard questions. The atmosphere was very relaxed. The conversation was held in German. I received an answer around 4 days after I had the call. All in all very positive experience.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why are you interested in purchasing?
What would you say is the biggest challenge for a purchasing department nowadays?
HR person was nice, overall process went smooth but the initial waiting result was too long. Too many rounds. Even after I answered the question, they rejected me without any valid justification. The question was unclear to me.
2 rounds of interviews, and they are all really kind and nice. Some basic questions like introduce yourself, why company why position, tell a time that ..... and the process is really smooth
