First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Leonardo.
Contract Manager
They reached out to me. The first call was with an internal HR person who asked about my education and work history. They confirmed my interest in the position and mentioned I'd be contacted for a Teams interview with another HR representative if the selection process continued. Two months passed, and I'd almost forgotten about it. I was then contacted by email to schedule the Teams meeting. Again, they inquired about my educational background and work experience. They also asked about my current salary, and I stated it without any reaction. I immediately made it clear that to relocate to the office (which is 1 hour and 20 minutes away from home), I would only consider offers that at least match my current salary after accounting for gas and highway expenses. With this point clarified, they said I would be contacted for an in-person interview with the business team. I never heard from them again.
- Could you tell me about your role as a salesperson, what your capabilities are, and what you've done previously?
- What is your current salary?
Business Development Manager
Ho ricevuto un contatto su LinkedIn e poi ho inviato il mio CV. C'è stata un'intervista telefonica con le risorse umane per un primo screening. Poi ho avuto un colloquio formale di circa 20 minuti, dopo il quale hanno fissato un altro incontro di approfondimento. Ho provato a rimanere in contatto su LinkedIn, ma alla fine la posizione è stata chiusa.
- What specific technical skills do you have for the role?
- What is your current salary expectation?
System Engineer
Il processo è iniziato con una telefonata e un colloquio tecnico. Il colloquio tecnico era abbastanza nella norma, niente di troppo difficile ma richiede comunque un po' di preparazione. La parte con l'HR comporta domande piuttosto inopportune sulla retribuzione precedente, ecc. classiche domande da vecchia azienda italiana che potrebbero mettere in difficoltà un candidato alle prime armi, il tutto ovviamente per massimizzare il profitto minimizzando i costi, una mossa classica delle aziende italiane ancora ferme agli anni '70. Ho ricevuto un'offerta ma ho rifiutato perché l'ambiente non mi è sembrato dei migliori.
- Potresti spiegare cos'è un radar ad apertura sintetica?
- Hai qualche domanda aggiuntiva sugli spettri radar?
Project Manager
It was a 5-round interview process, all done remotely via video calls. They were looking for someone to manage construction projects, specifically for new hangars and runways. The salary offered was 43K lower than what I'm currently making, so I turned down the offer. They did offer meal vouchers and ongoing training.
- Are you open to business travel?
- Do you have experience with large construction sites?
- How do you handle escalations during the construction phase?
