First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Hatch.
IT Service Desk Technician
It started with a call with HR, then I met with the manager and a senior IT lead. We talked about my experiences, my day-to-day tasks, and the tools I use. It was conversational, and they also asked about my knowledge of some Microsoft tools. Overall, it was a simple and easy process.
- How have your past experiences prepared you for this role?
- Tell me about your previous experiences.
- What are your day-to-day responsibilities?
Intern
It was a 45 minute interview where they asked about my work experience and also talked about the work they do. I didn't get any technical questions, and barely any personality questions. I think they asked one of the twenty questions I had prepped.
- Could you elaborate on your past work experience?
- Can you provide specific examples to validate the tasks you've described?
- What projects have you been involved in?
Consultant
Started with a recruiter chat over the phone. Then I had a fit interview with a Sr engagement manager. That interview was pretty much all behavioural questions, but they really went deep on the negative ones, like asking about mistakes or misunderstandings. After that, it was a case interview with the director of advisory services. It was a standard business case, but the director added his own unique spin, so I just had to remember to keep my approach structured throughout.
- What are your strategies for approaching and maintaining high team morale?
- Can you describe an instance where you had to break a commitment? What was the situation and how did you manage it?
Business Analyst
So there were two rounds. The first round was an online one-way interview using Willo. It had three questions, and I had 15 minutes for each, with 4 tries per question. After that, I had to do a Wonderlic assessment, which tested critical thinking, problem-solving, learning ability, and attention to detail. It was 50 questions in 12 minutes. If you passed that, you'd go to the office for an interview there.
