I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Medtronic (Denver, CO) in Jun 2015
Interview
The process was pretty straight forward, it was a bit long, over an hour and a half. Lots of behavioral questions, and what if scenarios. We first did a phone screening, which was pretty much the manager making sure I had a full understanding of the job role and what would be expected of me, the next was a face to face interview with the person who would be my manager, and then I met with the manager and a member of my would be team. The interview with the would be team member was essentially the same as the interview with the manager, more behavioral and situational type questions.

Question 1
Sometimes you are painted as an outsider in this role, how do you integrate yourself into the team?
Probably the worst process any company has ever put me through. I had a recruiter screen, hiring manager screen, district manager screen, engineer screen, technical quiz which required over 30 hours of studying, and then a 45 minute long final presentation which took over a week of preparation only to be given a generic rejection telling me they went with someone else and would keep my information on file and refer me to their other positions as they open up. Never again will I let a company waste my time like Medtronic did and give me the absolute disrespect of a generic rejection after the amount of effort I put in. Six interviews has to be a joke and they were just testing if I was enough of a fool to keep showing up.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Medtronic (Utah, TN) in Mar 2026
Interview
Pretty straight forward just a super long process. Multiple phone calls and in person meet ups. Overall not very challenging though. Just took like 2 months to get an answer. Good experience overall though.
6 week process, started with recruiter screen, hiring manager zoom, then field ride with rep. I also networked with the current local CS team with phone calls. They encouraged me to do as many informational interviews as possible with the local team.
