Behavioral

I went to an Engineering Job Fair on campus where Kimberly Clark had recruiters. I talked to one recruiter, who then introduced me to a senior recruiter. He set up an interview for the next day. There were two other candidates interviewing simultaneously. Another recruiter was outside with candidates, answering questions and getting to know them. The interview lasted about 45 minutes. The recruiter took detailed notes. The questions were standard Kimberly Clark behavioral questions, not about my resume or personal background. I asked him some questions afterward. He said I'd hear back in about two weeks, but it's been a month.

Behavioral Technical

This was the fastest interview process ever. I got an offer in 5 days! First, there was a 30-min chat with HR about cultural fit, then a 90-min technical interview with 3 people from my potential team. They were all super nice and made me feel comfortable. It felt like a mutual check for compatibility.
