I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Tyco in Dec 2009
Interview
Interviewed with 5 different managers over a period of 6 hours. Many were not very skilled in the process, but no serious problems. Many were very helpful in explaining the operations. Final interview was with HR mgr. who made you feel very comfortable and asked good questions.
I made it to the final 2, but how the actual decision was made was unknown.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Tyco (Bengaluru)
Interview
Initially I was hired as a Assistant manager, and was also promised for growth with in 6 month to 1 year to the position of Manager. There would generally be a good amount allotted for new hires, how ever HR/ Dept Managers negotiate too much and gain importance showing cost saving on the hiring, very poor hiring strategy. This has a long standing effect as when you compare your counter part in other countries/ town/ other companies with in India, many a times you would realize that you have not been on par with your counter part.
Job Security - This company has a history of firing people with out proper notice period, due to failure in their recruitment process.
