Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Koch.
Intern
For interns, there are two interview rounds. The first is on campus, and the second is at headquarters. If you are from far away, you can do the second interview remotely. In the first round, most questions are about your past experiences, focusing on your character traits and how you'd use them in your studies or job. The second interview is similar, but might include job-specific or technical questions. Everyone is graded using a PBM rubric.
- What are your thoughts on Knowledge Sharing?
IT Intern
The interview process was mostly behavioral questions with a few technical ones. It was a good experience, and I even met another manager. There were two interviews: a phone screening first, and then one over Zoom. The stress level was low.
- Can you share an instance of failure?
- What is a personal weakness?
Intern
So first there was an orientation, then a test that was pretty easy, it had questions from computer science and aptitude stuff. After the test, I had an interview at the company office. Three days later, the list of selected candidates came out.
- Can you discuss your past projects?
- Could you describe your general attitude towards interacting with others?
