I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at BMW Group in Mar 2015
Interview
It was very friendly and smooth. It lasted about 40 min, i was asked pretty standard questions regarding my competencies, past experience and cross-cultural awareness. The interviewer was very friendly and allowed me to act natural. Towards the end I have asked about 3-4 questions, which the interviewer was happy to answer.

I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at BMW Group in Nov 2021
Interview
Applied via Glassdoor and was reached out via email. I received a 30 min interview via video chat with current intern and HR generalist, but when I got on the call I was told they needed 30 more mins. I agreed and had a seemingly unstructured interview. I was scheduled for another second round interview with the HR manager, which was rescheduled last minute and then cancelled soon after without reason. I received and accepted an offer after this via video call. Fast forward, I signed my offer letter, passed my drug test and background test but had not heard any start details. I reached out a week before my start date and received several emails with automatic replies, as my few contacts had left the company or were on vacation. Eventually, four days before my start, I was informed of my approval and emailed documents. I completed same day but asked for a push back of my start date due to a family death. The manager agreed however, I experienced a second family death and was exposed to COVID, which I informed them of with in advance of my start date. Because the office is still in person (Jan 2022) and I asked for guidance as to how we should proceed. I never received an answer. My start date passed and two more days went by with still no response. I emailed saying I was no longer interested. Would have expected more respect and communication from such a large company.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at BMW Group (Bukit Merah Estate) in Jan 2019
