First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at DENSO.
Design Engineer
The hiring process starts with a test to see what you know and how you solve problems. Then there's an interview to check your tech skills, experience, and how you communicate. Lastly, a final interview to make sure you're a good fit for the company culture and what you can bring to the team before they decide to hire you, making sure they pick the best person for the job.
- What's your expected tenure at this company?
Business Planning Specialist
The hiring process involved 1 phone interview and 2 virtual interviews. The entire hiring team was really nice and no STAR based questions were asked. They were more genuinely interested in experiences and understanding why you want to move into your next role. The phone interview was with the HR person and was very informal, just making sure that skills align. The 1st virtual interview was with the team you'd be most closely working with and was more about asking and a deeper dive into your experiences and how they can translate to the role. The 2nd virtual interview was with the Hiring managers and was a little more formal and had some STAR-esque questions but again very much about understanding your experience. Overall the process was very quick, communication was excellent and everyone was extremely friendly.
- Could you describe your past experiences?
- Have you had experience with this specific task?
- Can you provide more details about that particular experience?
HR Generalist
The interview went pretty well, I felt good about it. I passed the first screening and was expecting a callback for a second interview. But, I didn't hear anything for over a week. When I followed up, they told me I wasn't moving on to the next round. I appreciate the feedback, but it would be good if candidates got updates faster. Better communication really helps the candidate experience.
- Tell me about how you manage conflict and deal with tough conversations.
Supply Chain Specialist
I had a phone call with a recruiter first, which was just a basic Q&A. Then, I had a phone interview with all the managers on campus. If they liked me, I had an in-person interview that took a few hours. The in-person part included a one-on-one with the hiring manager, a group interview with future coworkers, and a tour of the plant. The questions weren't too hard, just standard interview stuff. The whole thing took about 2-3 months from applying to starting.
- How would your education, which isn't directly related, be applicable to this position?
