After you successfully pass a phone interview, you will be required to take the Merck’s pre-employment tests. Provided you receive high scores on them, you will move to the next level of the pre-employment assessment, an in-person interview. This interview is usually conducted in one of the Merck’s locations. On it, you will have a chance to talk with your prospective managers, who will ask you about your working experience and your career goals. They will also want to determine whether you have required skills to perform job tasks well and whether you will be a good fit for the company. Situational questions will also be posed. Before you come for the face-to-face interview, think about a problematic situation you faced in your past and recollect what steps you took to resolve it. Your recruiters will want to know what goals you set for yourself, while coping with the difficult situation, and what remedy you found for it. Tell them also about possible alternative resolution of the problem that your weighted but finally decided not to implement. By following these steps, you will show to the Merck’s employers how your mind works in stressful situations.
