My experience with the Ipsen interview process was quite mixed. The interaction with the Talent Acquisition team was excellent. However, the interview with the Brazilian Medical Director was uncomfortable and not aligned with the level of professionalism expected for a senior role. The conversation took place in an inappropriate setting (an airport), during her meal, which negatively impacted the quality of the interaction. Additionally, there were unprofessional behaviors, such as eating in a distracting manner during the interview, sometimes talking with others while I was giving an answer. Another point that stood out was the nature of the questions. They were highly tactical and, at times, seemed more focused on validating pre-existing ideas rather than genuinely assess the candidate experience. Total nightmare and I stopped few times to talk and the hiring manager even noticied as her focus was on her meal or her flight boarding.
