From start to finish, the process was well-organized, transparent, and respectful of everyone's time. The hiring team was engaging, professional, and genuinely invested in creating a positive candidate experience. Overall, CVS Health seems to be a great place work.

The recruiter reached to me after I applied online. During our initial conversation, he did not ask any questions but gave an overview of the company and team. Following that, he scheduled four interviews, including one with the hiring manager and three with his peers. Interestingly, the interview with the hiring manager was placed last. My conversations with the three team members were excellent. They had been with CVS for several years and brought strong consulting experience from firms like McKinsey. The discussions were engaging and insightful. However, the experience with the hiring manager was disappointing. He had to reschedule once due to an emergency and then joined the rescheduled call five minutes late. While I understand everyone has a busy schedule, his lack of engagement was noticeable from the start. He appeared distracted, frequently looking at another screen and typing during the conversation. His questions seemed unprepared, and he clearly wanted to end the interview about 20 minutes early. When I asked him standard questions about day-to-day responsibilities, team structure, and how AI is used in their work, he seemed visibly uninterested and uncomfortable, as though answering these basic questions was a burden. Overall it was a waste of time since because of hiring manager's attitude, it was evident either he was interested in hiring me or they had already picked someone and they were interview for sake of interviewing to increase HR KPIs.
