      Associate Scientist Interview

      Nov 13, 2015
      Anonymous employee
      Valhalla, NY
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at PepsiCo (Valhalla, NY) in Nov 2015

      Interview

      Consisted of 7 one on one interviews at the site. Most questions were behavioral questions. The higher level bosses asked more difficult questions and tested on technical beverage knowledge. Make sure you know jargon related to beverages. Try to research the market and the direction of the beverage industry.

      Associate Scientist Interview

      Mar 30, 2022
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      New York, NY
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      The process took 1 week. I interviewed at PepsiCo (New York, NY) in Feb 2022

      Interview

      Phone screen interview was no problem. My interview round with the hiring manager went great and I was moved to the next round interview with the team. This is where all the problems started. I was asked to schedule an interview with 5 people which I did, to only be told I must reschedule 4/5 of them again due to personal issues the interviewers had. I begrudgingly rescheduled and was asked the very next day to reschedule AGAIN for some interviews. At this point I already interviewed with 2 panel members and saw the position as an inappropriate fit for recent college graduates with some months of experience as per the job description (0-3yrs). After the interviews and receiving an email about rescheduling for more interviews I immediately withdrew my application because the recruitment team were ridiculous about their organization skills for scheduling interviews.

      Associate Scientist Interview

      Jan 24, 2022
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Mount Prospect, IL
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PepsiCo (Mount Prospect, IL) in Dec 2021

      Interview

      You schedule 5 sequential Zoom interviews at once, each with a different interviewer. I don't know if there is more to the process as I haven't heard back from them for a month. This is a horrible hiring process in my opinion. Completely unnecessary as they mostly just asked the same types of situational questions and didn't seem enthusiastic to be interviewing. It would be better if they implemented a more traditional interview process.

      Name a time where you and a supervisor had differing styles of working, and how did you overcome that.
