Here are the most commonly searched roles for interview reports -
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Honeywell (Minneapolis, MN) in Sep 2017
Interview
Initial phone screening by someone in HR; then a hand-off to another person in HR; a higher level HR manager; then a Finance Director. All phone interviews but the HON people were prepared and listened and were thoughtful with their questions and time. They definitely want to get a cultural fit.

Question 1
Out of my previous roles, which one fit me best/least? What am I looking for now (in a company)? How did I motivate my sales teams in a previous role? What were the reasons why I left my previous jobs and moved to new companies?
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Honeywell (Rosemont, IL) in Feb 2025
Interview
Phone screen with the recruiter, video meeting with key onsite business partner, three separate video meetings with members of the team from different office locations, and final interview with executive. Correspondence was very quick until it came to following final interview.
Recruiter reached out from LinkedIn. Had a 30min call. 3 panel interviews with SMEs, cross functional peers (9 people - ~3hrs), HM interview. Got a decline saying that they decided to fill the position internally.

Question 1
Example of Program Management that I found most challenging.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Honeywell (Atlanta, GA)
Interview
Combination of 1:1 and 1:2 virtual interviews with peers, hiring manager and related stakeholders. Everyone was very warm and accommodating on a personal level. They use a personality screening test of some kind which is not unusual. But it is accompanied by a very poorly written, and demanding sounding email requiring the applicant to drop everything and set aside a few hours for this test. Very off putting and potentially telling of corporate culture.
I ultimately self-cancelled the interview process after deciding I wasn't a fit with the senior leader's philosophy on the work.

Softball stuff - tell me about your background; tell me about the work you've done.
