I was referred by a friend who is an employee. About a year ago, I was brought in for 2 interviews only to be told that they thought I was a "very strong candidate" but the position I had interviewed for had been "put on hold". A year later, I applied again for a different sales position. I was called shortly thereafter. I interviewed first with a depeartment manager. I was subsequently asked to come in a meet with the director of another department. She advised me that she thought that I was better suited for a different position and recommended me to a different department. About a week later, I interviewed with a different manager and was called back to come in for a "meet and greet" with the higher ups at Merck. I took off from work yet again, as I was told that this was pretty much a "done deal". I met with the execs and everything seemed to go very well, but now it's been almost 2 weeks, and I've heard absolutely nothing. It's somewhat confusing and very frustrating as I've been working through this process for 2 months now. They tend to bring your hopes up, and then you hear nothing back. I've contacted HR a couple times to follow up but still nothing. I wouldn't interview with them again. It was a complete waste of my time, especially having to go on 4 different interviews just to hear nothing.
