I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Kraft Heinz (Brisbane) in May 2019
Interview
It was the worst interview that I already had so far. It was conducted by phone for about 15 minutes. First, the interviewer was coughing all the time during my answers. It can happen, and I understand. However, regular people usually apologies and give time to answer again, or ask to repeat the response. I felt she couldn't listen to my responses because she was very impatient. She was extremely unpolite, changing questions when I haven't finished the answers, cutting me off all the time and rushing me. In the end, when I was supposed to make questions to know a little bit more about the company, I asked about the culture and what she liked most about working there. She was arrogant, suggesting me to have a look at the reviews on Glassdoor or reading about the company's culture to find out more about them. At that point, I gave up doing more questions. After a few days, she called me to inform the result. I said that I couldn't talk at that moment because I was going to work, but she insisted on giving the feedback very quickly. I was on the lift, and the only thing I could hear was that I wasn't approved and something else that I could listen to.

Previous experiences and situations that arises in those positions as well as potential ones in the position.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Kraft Heinz in July 2022
Interview
It began with online testing followed by an interview with recruitment, an interview with the hiring manager, and then finally an interview with the manager of the hiring manager - each interview was approximately 45 minutes. Recruitment then went silent for three plus weeks despite multiple attempts to contact them (email and phone). I was then told I didn't get the role as I had no FMCG experience. The recruiter went on to ask if I'd consider applying to them again in the future...
