I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Sanofi in Jan 2020
Interview
It was a five steps process. First I had to reply to a differed video interview, it is a quite strange exercise, not natural at all. Then I had an HR phone call (quite short and basic) and after a zoom interview with the manager. I also had the opportunity to meet the N+2 in face to face in Paris. At the end of the process I had a final interview with HR
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Sanofi in Mar 2021
Interview
- First step I recorded myself through Sanofi Website where I had to answer several question about my motivation and previous experience.
- Second step, HR contacted me (2 or 3 weeks after) to ask my availability and schedule for a meeting with the manager, then we exchange emails to confirm the meeting.
- Third step, the meeting with managers went fine, they presented the company, jobs and team. They asked questions about my motivation and experience and I asked questions about the job. It last 1h. They told me they will contacted me within a week for the next step.
-A week after no news so I asked the HR, no update, the week after I followed-up twice or three times, now reply from the HR.
Very disappointed, even after those 3 steps and 2 months in the process, I expected at least to get an answer from the HR but nothing.
