Got contacted by a third-party contractor that manages initial phone screenings, which seemed a little odd, considering their website says something like only people from @honeywell.com email addresses will contact you. In any case, the screening was standard issue, but I did feel like the interviewer had to match my responses to predetermined options. For example, when I explained why I want to leave my current job, the interviewer summarized the several reasons I offered with, "so, growth opportunities?". Beyond the standard questions, I was asked to rate myself on a scale of 1 to 5 for hard and soft skills that aligned with the job description. For everything I didn't rate myself a 5 on, I was asked why.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Honeywell (Gurgaon, Haryana) in Jun 2019
Interview
There was 4 rounds. First a normal HR round, Second being technical around, Third being manger round and last being face to face. The process was smooth and you will get frequently update whenever you follow up
I applied online. I interviewed at Honeywell in Mar 2012
Interview
Interview process was very intensive. I made it to the the last round (after four telephone interviews and two in-person interviews). The questions were very focused on how you would handle certain situations and giving specific examples of past work experience in certain situations (e.g. explain a time you went against what a manager told you, a time when you exceeded expectations, etc). My huge complaint is that they did not contact me to say they decided to hire for the position from within. After 8+ hours of interviewing, I think I deserved an e-mail. I contacted the recruiter who did respond in a timely manner with the info, but clearly didn't intend to do so unless I contacted her.
