I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Merck KGaA (Bengaluru) in July 2020
Interview
I had applied for the post on the company's website and got a text from HR after 2 weeks that I will have video conference round with 5 panel interviewers.
The asked very basic questions on design pattern , core java and DevOps. It seems they were least bothered to take the interview. Its almost 2 weeks post interview ,there is no response from the HR. Very Sloppy HR/process.
