Q “What are Your Salary Expectations?”
A#1 – “I was making $60,000 at my last job, plus bonuses. I would be expecting at least that and a 15-20% increase.: (This is not a good answer)
A#2 – “I’m sure whatever you offer will be a fair amount for a person with my qualifications. Salary is not the most important factor to me. I’m looking for opportunity.”(This is a somewhat weak answer)
A#3 – “I really need more information about the job before we start to discuss salary. I’d like to postpone that discussion until later. Maybe you could tell me what is budgeted for the position, and how your commission structure works.”(This is the best answer)
Q. “What Do You Expect in the Way of Salary?”
A#1 – “Before I answer that question I’d like to ask what you typically pay someone with my experience and education in this type of position?” (Good Answer)
A#2 – I’m sure when the time comes and I know more about the facts of the position and how it fits into the bigger picture, we can come to a mutually agreeable figure.” (Good answer)
A#3 - “I really need more information about the position before I can begin to discuss salary. Can you tell me the range budgeted for this position?” (Good answer)
Q. “What Salary Range Would You Require to Take This Job?”
A#1 – “From the research that I have done it appears to be in the $60–70,000 range. Is that the range you had in mind?” (This is a good answer if they insist on a figure from you).
A#2 – “Based on my previous experience and education and the ‘going rate’ for this type of position, I would like to be in the mid to high 70s. Is that a range that fit with your compensation structure?”(Good answer if pushed for a figure – give an acceptable range.)
A#3 – “I would need to know more about your salary structure and how often you review salaries as well as your entire package before I could discuss salary ranges. Could you provide me with more information before we discuss this subject?” (Good answer to push back the discussion to them.)
Q. “What Salary Are You/Were You Making at Your Last Job?”
The hiring process included 4 rounds of interviews. One of them was with hiring manager, others with technical leadership, VP and finally a panel interview. The panel asked me various question regarding my personal motivations and willingness to work in my department
Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 3 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en OpenText (Estocolmo, ) en abr 2025
Entrevista
The process began with a recruiter who reached out and asked relevant questions about my background. The initial interaction was positive, with a professional and energetic tone. The second stage involved an interview with the hiring manager, which was a different experience—he seemed disengaged and difficult to schedule with, giving the impression that I was the one chasing the opportunity.
After a cold rejection email, I followed up and asked for feedback but never received a clear response. The lack of communication and accountability felt unprofessional and reflects poorly on the company culture. Based on this experience, I will not apply to OpenText again.
Me postulé a través de una recomendación de un empleado. El proceso tomó 4 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en OpenText en mar 2025
Entrevista
First interview was with HR, they did not discuss the role, only asked about my background and said the hiring manager would have more details of the role. The second interview was the hiring manager, they were nice, but read from a script and seemed to be checking the boxes. It was question and answer, not really a conversation. The hiring manager had been at the company for a long time so they were out of touch with what it is like to be on both sides of the interview table. It was evident they perceived themselves with power. Not a great quality in a leader. Opentext did not get back to me after two weeks and then automated rejection.
