After applying online, I had a phone screening with the hiring manager. Then, I was invited for an in-person interview at the company's office with several members of the management team. The people were nice, but it was obvious that the new CEO and management were all new. Three of them came from a previous company, so it felt like a "good old boy club." I followed up several times afterwards but never heard about a decision. I found the company to be very unorganized and extremely unprofessional.

Behavioral Technical Presentation

I had a few meetings with the senior manager and the VP of HR. It felt like they didn't have a clear idea of what they wanted for the role. I tried asking about the day-to-day tasks and the future of the position, but they never answered. This became a problem later on. I'd suggest bringing a portfolio and be ready for all sorts of technical questions since this is a non-automated plastics and metal plant.

Behavioral Other

It was a really awkward interview. The manager and HR didn't seem to know what questions to ask. They mostly asked about how my old company was run and what their procedures were, instead of focusing on what I could bring to the table. The manager's questions were unclear, and their poor communication skills were a big turn-off. Even the offer process was strange. The HR person wasn't friendly at all. When I said I was excited about the offer, they just stayed silent. I decided not to take the job because the interviewers lacked warmth, and I'd heard some negative things about the company's reputation in the community.

I had a face-to-face interview with two senior managers and two department members. The atmosphere was really relaxed and friendly, not at all threatening. I got to ask a lot of my own questions, and they made me feel super comfortable the whole time. The senior managers were really professional but also light and approachable, and the department members knew their stuff and were happy to answer anything I asked.
