7. Final interview with Hiring Manager
After 7 interviews, I was told that it was down to me and one other person and they couldn't decide so after all of that and a work assignment I was told... "Give us your final pitch. Why should we choose you?"
I was told to wait. I checked in after 2 weeks and was told there was a delay in the decision-making process. I checked in after another 2 weeks and was told to wait.
It has now been 6 months, and I still haven't received an offer or a rejection.
Sonova/AB has a deeply unserious and outdated hiring process.
