Week 0: Applied online. Week 1: Received an email to complete a 15-minute Gallup online assessment (timed, and “strongly agree” to “strongly disagree” scaled questioning). Week 2: Received an email to set up a 15-minute phone interview. Week 3: Phone interview held, consisting of rapid-fire questions. Two minutes or so for me to ask questions. Ended with the interviewer requesting a follow-up Teams-based interview. Email subsequently confirmed this was expected to last an hour, aligning with Stryker's careers website information. Total interview duration: 18 minutes. Week 3-4: Preparation and more research. Week 4: Teams-based interview held. Same phone interviewer. They arrived 10 minutes late. Again, rapid-fire questioning. Focused on conflict resolution approaches, including how I dealt with negative feedback and how it would affect me (red flags). Interviewer appeared distracted and seemed to be ticking boxes on a device. After 10 minutes of questioning (including repeating questions covered in Week 3 phone interview), the interviewer repeatedly asked if I now had any questions, which I did. Ending the interview, I also asked for performance feedback. Interviewer suggested condensing my answers. This was confusing as Stryker recommends the STAR answer approach and, in this instance, the interviewer only questioned me for 10 minutes. Total interview duration: 15 minutes (not including the initial 10 minutes MIA). At this point, decided to turn down additional interviews. In the future, will not be applying for other Stryker positions (due to red flags and the above experience). End of Week 4: Received the "we have decided to move forward with other applicants…” email. Hopefully, this will assist other candidates or anyone interested in learning about the Australian Stryker process.

Very lengthy interview process. Expect multiple calls with people with a personality test that is often make or break for being hired. The interviews themselves aren’t rigorous but it takes a while for them to pick up after you’ve applied.
