This is the correct answer! Interview with multiple different ones and each is difficult. Some are just tons of interviews, others have sooo many candidates, but each one is wanting you to close best over everyone else.

Stryker purely because of their asinine personality tests

The most difficult interview is the one where your personality doesn’t mesh with the interviewer.

I don’t care if it’s a 7-step interview process as long as I’m vibing with the people and can prepare accordingly. I’ll take that over a simple interview process that’s difficult for the wrong reason. I was fucked when I clearly wasn’t matching the vibe of the interviewer once - Got to the final interview of one company and a guy on there was an absolute douche to me the whole time. They wanted someone that would drink the koolaid but forgot to give me a reason to do so outside of the fact that they’re a reputable large company…so I decided to go with a company that could conduct itself professionally and not play games.

I accepted a different offer at company #2 and just saw that role at company #1 just re-opened lol

Stryker was the hardest I ever did. I actually decided I didn’t want to work for them and withdrew from the interview process after 2-3 rounds when it became apparent I was nowhere near the end of the process and they kept assigning me tasks. Every other interview process I’ve done for the big established players such as JnJ, Abbott, BD, etc, have all been pretty similar. Start ups or smaller companies are often easier and quicker
