The interview process involves meeting with the plant manager and all area supervisors. They were very professional and direct with their answers. They were open to showing me the work I'd be doing in the field. The company is an equal opportunity employer that prioritizes safety, offers good pay and benefits, and provides all necessary tools for the job. It was a great interview experience.

Behavioral Technical

It was a fast interview process. They knew exactly who they wanted and were very professional. They were friendly and professional, but you could tell they had their own personalities. The interview was in a meeting room, and they came in to talk to you. They had notepads and laptops and took notes on what was said. They tried to seem intimidating, but it was mostly a bluff.

Technical Behavioral

It was a pretty standard 2-stage interview process, plus a psychometric test and a drug test. The first stage was mainly technical, and the second was with the boss to see if I was a good fit. Boral seems to do interviews the same way for everyone, no matter the job. They're pretty strict with their rules and policies, so don't expect to negotiate much. The HR person said they don't really look at the psychometric or drug test results, but they have to do them because of head office rules.
