Prysmian Ghosting Culture – My Bad Experience
I applied to Prysmian’s graduate program America zone in July 2025. The process was very slow and took almost six months. I did the final interview with the program coordinator in December 2025. She said I would hear back in a few days.
Before that, I spent a lot of time: almost one hour with the recruiter at first, then 2.5 hours in a group interview with other candidates on case studies, the SHL test online, an HR interview and the final interview with the program coordinator from Italy. It all seemed to go well and the HR ladies were very nice to be honest. Which makes it even worse that they ghosted me.
Now it has been over a month, and nothing. No reply to my two follow-up emails where I mentioned the timeline she gave. Total silence.
This is frustrating, especially when you have other job offers waiting and need to know to move on. A short email saying no would have been enough. Prysmian wasted months of my time. Skip them if you want better communication.
The ghosting culture is awful and from the comments, I can see it didn't happen just to me.

Interview
Ho partecipato all'iter di selezione per il Graduate Program. Ho trovato l'intero processo estremamente ben organizzato e trasparente fin dall'inizio.
La tempistica è stata rispettata e i vari passaggi sono stati comunicati con chiarezza.
L'iter si è composto di 4 fasi principali:
Test iniziale, colloqui con hr, colloquio con manager e colloquio con HR program.
Si sono concentrati sul lato motivazionale e fit con il programma.
I applied online. I interviewed at Prysmian (Düsseldorf) in Sept 2025
Interview
It was included 2 steps interviews. First with HR and second with hiring person. It went smooth. Second interview wasnt enough professional, what i felt. In Both interviews, they asked me about my internship and what i did there exactly.
