Interview process: What to expect
Once you have identified the position(s) on our career site that you are interested in applying for, you will need to click on the “Apply Now” button. You will then have the option to join our Talent Network which will allow you to sign up for customized job alerts and receive occasional newsletters. Once you complete this step, you will then be brought to the application. You are not required to join our Talent Network and may opt-out at any time by following the link at the bottom of the automated emails/job alerts.
Depending on whether you upload an existing resume or are completing the fields as you go, the process can take between 3-25 minutes, and you will receive a confirmation email when the application process has been successfully completed.
A recruiter will review your application and contact you via email should your skills be a match for the role you applied for. Depending on the volume of applicants we receive for a role, it may take several weeks for our teams to review resumes. In general, we do our best to respond within two weeks of your application. On occasion, our response emails can be caught in spam filters. Please be sure to check your spam folder periodically to be sure you have not missed an email.
The hiring manager interview will be focused on your technical skills related to the job and understanding how you like to work, what kind of teams you like to be on, etc. It’s a great opportunity for you to get to know your potential manager and ask questions about them, their team and the role. This call generally takes between 30-60 minutes and may be in person or a video call.
After the Gallup interview, your recruiter and the hiring manager will review your resume, their notes from the phone conversations, and the Gallup feedback to decide on the next steps. You should also be deciding during this time whether this role is the right career move and if Stryker is the right “home” for you.
If you’ve decided you’d like to move forward, and the hiring team feels the same way, your recruiter will schedule a series of virtual or on-site interviews with the appropriate team members. If any of your interviews are on-site, your recruiter will introduce you to a member of our Candidate Care team who will assist you with scheduling travel (if needed), answering any questions you may have, greeting you upon your arrival, and handling any expenses.
Following your interviews, our team will connect to make a final decision. Your recruiter will remain in contact during this time and let you know once a decision is made. You will receive a phone call from the recruiter to discuss the feedback and decision.
We strive to have decisions made within a week of interviews but there are times it may take longer depending on the number of candidates interviewing and the availability of the hiring team. Should you have any questions during this time, please contact your recruiter.
*Note: Depending on the number of people you will be interviewing with, their schedules/locations, and your schedule, this process may take a few weeks to organize.
Once the decision is final, your hiring manager will contact you immediately and provide you with a verbal offer. From there, they will send you a formal offer letter which we ask that you review, sign and return with a confirmed start date. When your recruiter receives your signed offer letter, this may begin any local background processes e.g. references. You will receive instructions on the completion of this step via email.
Congratulations! If you have received and accepted an offer from Stryker, you will work with your hiring manager and/or HR to determine next steps for orientation!
