Comau General Intern Interview Questions
& Process

I sent a speculative application directly through the company website. Then I had a video call with HR for a motivational interview. After that, I had an interview with the manager of the PMO function. Finally, they offered me a 6-month internship aimed at completing my master's thesis.

It's a 3-stage process. First, you submit your resume. Then there's a group activity, followed by an individual interview. The group activity includes an icebreaker with some questions. After that, you have less than 30 minutes to solve a problem and prepare a presentation with your team, similar to a case study.

It was a long and confusing process. The first part involved an individual presentation with a surprise question and a group activity. For the second stage, we had to prepare a personal presentation for a panel of managers, but most of them didn't show up. After the presentation, the HR people in charge asked us which areas we wanted to be directed to, even though we were never told which areas had openings. Still in the second stage, after the 3 managers present left, there was another group activity with the same HR staff who ran the first one (this second activity seemed to have no impact since the resumes had already been sorted). Some candidates had their interview for the specific role on the same day with the managers who were there, while others were told to come back another day for feedback. The interview for the role I was directed to was with 3 managers, who explained the job duties and requested that most of the interview be conducted in English. Although they said they would be in touch, I never received feedback on the selection process.
