Interview with people on the team. About five people on the call asked you questions about your resume. It was pretty straightforward and inviting. I would recommend wearing business casual and preparing for it lightly.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Philips' application process includes submitting your resume, an initial assessment by the recruitment team, interviews with HR and the hiring manager, and a final decision based on feedback
The interview process at Philips involved several stages, beginning with the initial application. Once my application met their criteria, I was required to complete interactive games and video questions. After passing these stages, I was informed about the next step: a face-to-face interview with a manager.
However, the process exhibited some unprofessionalism. Just 30 minutes before the interview, an HR representative contacted me to mention that I needed to complete an assessment during my interview—an important detail that was omitted previously. This last-minute notification was quite inconvenient and unprofessional.
The face-to-face interview included typical interview questions along with the assessment. Despite completing all these steps, I never received any follow-up communication from Philips. This lack of response, combined with the earlier oversight, left me feeling that the overall interview process lacked professionalism.
