First, there was a video interview where I was asked automated questions about my past experiences. They asked me about 'tell me about a time' scenarios, and also about my weaknesses and strengths. The second round was a panel interview with several hiring managers. They asked questions about my coursework or previous job experience, and I had to explain my interests and why I want to join the firm.

Technical Behavioral
It was a face-to-face interview with the current supervisor and the entire Continual Process Improvement team. They used to handle the technical part of the interview. I didn't have any issues, but after 3 months of working there, the supervisor and director either retired or moved to another role within Freddie Mac. I had to get used to new management who, in my opinion, didn't grasp our current mission, so they decided to change our focus and mission. The whole team was bummed out and important members started leaving the program.

- Describe your experience working with environments that were divided into 7 or 8 separate silo operations and trying to integrate them into a single large enterprise system.

Read reports →“Given that job descriptions might not accurately reflect the actual needs, it's advisable to ask for more details about the position during the interview rather than assuming the written description is precise. This approach helps resolve many misunderstandings, as job descriptions are often created by procurement teams and may not perfectly align with the requirements of the business group that the role directly supports.”
