Behavioral Presentation

We started with a group orientation led by a Sr Recruiter and HR Assistant. They talked about the company, its culture, and opportunities, plus basic pay and benefits info. While they presented, we filled out an application that asked us to describe how we'd handle two situations: 1) an achievement and 2) a complicated situation. After the presentation, people were called for one-on-one interviews. While waiting, the host held a Q&A. It was a pleasant, simple, and comfortable process, leaving me feeling good about the opportunity.

The process was quick and had general questions. Sometimes there was more than one interview, with either operations managers or human resources. They seemed to prejudge based on appearance. There was no real structure, and there was a long wait time. Sometimes they'd even forget they scheduled interviews. It was very messy and unprofessional.

Behavioral Technical

I applied online. Then I had a phone interview scheduled with a recruiter, but they forgot about it and rescheduled for later that day. After that, I went to an open house which was basically a presentation about the company. Then I had an in-person interview at the job site. They also wanted me to do an online test, but the system was down.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • The interview questions are scripted and pretty standard.
