I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Stryker (Fremont, CA) in Oct 2015
Interview
Applied online, received a phone interview and three weeks later a rejection email. The phone interview was about an hour long and consisted of multiple behavioral questions. Interviewer was a little rude on the phone, recruiter would not answer emails, they took a long time getting back.

I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Stryker (Amsterdam) in June 2025
Interview
1. online application 2. HR screening 3. Teams meeting with a team lead 4. Gallup assessment 5. Teams meeting with a department head and a team member
It went smoothly for the most part, especially because they employ a bot to schedule calls. However, I had been ghosted for more than a month after the last round of the interview, after multiple follow-up emails and calls to the HR personnel. I withdrew my application at the one-month mark, but they also do not react to it at all. They are responsive until you are not chosen.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Stryker
Interview
Long process with 4 different interviews consisting of meeting 3 different managers over 3 different locations, FL, AZ, Mexico. First interview with corporate recruiter unrelated to any of the job functions/sites. Second with hiring manager.
