First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Newmont.
Electrical Engineer
The hiring process was pretty easy and fast. I applied and then did a quick online test with some behavior questions and a safety question. Then I had my final interview over Teams, it was about 45 minutes with a panel of HR and two engineers.
- Can you share an instance where you found a safety hazard and explain the steps you took to resolve it?
Engineering Intern
They asked me some mining site specific questions like, Watch this video and describe 2 safety hazards on the mine site. It is end of shift handover what information do you provide to the next crew.
- After watching a video, could you identify two safety hazards present on the mine site?
- Imagine it's the end of your shift, what details would you communicate to the incoming crew?
Team Lead
The interview was for a junior role, but it was advertised as a more senior-related position. It was conducted by a manager and an HR representative who seemed relatively experienced. The interview was a two-person session. They had a limited understanding of the role, location, and potential disruptions. The whole experience was weak, rushed, and unprofessional.
- Tell me about a time you had to deal with conflict.
Intern
This interview process was poor. They decided not to interview me because I had left the graduate program at the University of Denver. They still asked me a lot of detailed questions even though they wouldn't hire me. I have a Bachelors Degree, a Full Stack Web Development Certificate, and I'm currently pursuing a Data Science Certificate, but none of that mattered to them.
- What made you want to apply for this position?
- How would you go about identifying trends, cause-and-effect relationships, or potential opportunities within a dataset?
- Considering Newmont’s core values of Safety, Integrity, Sustainability, Inclusion, and Responsibility, which one stands out to you and why?
