Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Koch.
Tax Intern
The interview process can be quite lengthy for an internship, involving up to three meetings. My advice? Try to connect with someone already at Koch and bypass the initial screening. If you manage to get straight to the manager interviews, just be your authentic self – they really value personality fit.
- What draws you to the field of taxation?
- How do you view the appeal of tax roles compared to other accounting positions?
Tax Manager
It was a long day with four separate interviews plus lunch. They asked a lot of good questions about my fit for the role. You should come prepared knowing about Koch’s values and have good examples of situations you have been in.
- Can you tell me about your previous jobs?
- What are your thoughts on Koch's values?
- Can you give examples of situations you have been in?
Tax Analyst
I met with some associates at a career fair first. They were really nice and told me a lot about the company. I sent them a thank you email and they asked me to apply. I sent my resume and transcript, and then they called me for a phone interview. It was a basic behavioral interview with about 7 or 8 questions. I passed that and then went to an in-office interview. They gave me a tour and I had two interviews. The first one was behavioral with two people, a senior analyst and a manager. They talked a lot about my resume and also about the company, it felt like they were selling me on the job. Then I had another interview with a manager, which was more casual. We mostly talked about my resume and I asked questions about the company and the economy. A couple weeks later, they offered me the job.
- Could you elaborate on this aspect of your resume?
- What was the most significant takeaway from that particular experience on your resume?
