Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Conagra Brands.
Manager
Had a good interview with the company recruiter, it was straightforward, friendly, and quick. The phone interview with the manager was tough because they both used the SAR method (Situation, Action, Results). It's crucial to know your numbers and metrics inside and out. If you can't explain them, you won't move forward. Make sure you're ready to discuss metrics from your past roles that are important to them.
- Can you provide specific details on metric results from previous employers concerning quality complaints?
- Could you share specific metric results from past roles related to safety?
- What were the specific metric results you achieved in previous positions regarding cost reductions?
Field Manager
A recruiter from ConAgra reached out via LinkedIn about an open Field Manager Category Leadership role, thinking I'd be a good fit. After my info went to the hiring manager, I had a phone interview with them. This was followed by a full day of interviews: an hour with the hiring manager, two Sales Directors, and the VP of Sales for the region. Then, I had a phone interview with a Marketing VP, who is the hiring manager's boss. The whole thing took a while but was a really good experience; I enjoyed talking with everyone.
- Describe a major challenge in your current business and how you're addressing it.
Planning Manager
Had three separate interviewing sessions before receiving an offer: 1. High Level with HR 2. Hiring Director 3. Multiple face-to-face with other managers and directors. Be careful when working for this company, ConAgra is split into multiple divisions, each division has its own work environment. Some are very difficult workloads and some reasonable workloads.
- All of the questions were very fair and straight-forward. No games or silly intelligence tests.
