Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Sobeys.
Procurement Specialist
First interview was with HR. Second interview was with the hiring manager. Third interview was with the procurement director. All interviews were behavioral questions. Personable and approachable if you prepare with data driven answers.
- How do you approach a complicated negotiation?
Buyer
Had a phone chat with someone from HR where they asked good, thorough questions about my background and skills, plus some situational questions. It was about 20 mins. Then, a ZOOM meeting with another HR person, my future manager, and the team lead. It was an interesting chat, lots of questions about my experience, what I'd achieved, what I learned, and why I'd be a good fit. We also discussed the role, my responsibilities, career growth, and why I'm looking to change structures. This one lasted about an hour. Finally, a quick call with HR to sort out the details.
- What's your motivation for seeking a new role or company?
- Can you share what initiatives you implemented to enhance processes in your previous company?
- What makes you believe you are a strong candidate for this position?
Planner
Started with HR, then went to the hiring manager for a case study. The HR call was 45 minutes, and the hiring team interview was 50 minutes. I had to present my case study solution, which took up most of the interview time. The HR chat was pretty chill, the guy was really nice and helpful.
