The process was straightforward, but it took them several months to get back to me. During that time, I assumed I hadn’t gotten the role and started exploring other offers. Eventually, they did reach out—but it took over three months.

I got contacted about a phone interview less than a week after applying. The phone interview happened less than a week after that. The very next day, I was asked to come in for an in-person interview. After the in-person interview, I didn't hear back for over a month, and then I got a call for a second interview. I was offered the job two days after that. It's possible my experience is a bit different because both my in-person interviews were for two different positions, but just be ready to spend a significant amount of time there. Each interview had six 30-minute slots. Everyone I met was really friendly and chill.

The interview process was long and tedious. I had a phone interview with a recruiter for 30 minutes, a phone interview with the hiring manager for 30 minutes, onsite interviews for 4 hours with the hiring manager and others and then a second onsite interview (almost 3 weeks after the previous interview) with the hiring manager and different members of the team for 3.5 hours. Overall, there was about 9 hours of interviews and no offer. I may have shown my frustration with the second set of interviews onsite. That seems like an excessive amount of time to take to decide on a non management candidate. It was a blessing in disguise since I got an offer from a company I felt was a much better fit. I think Smucker's should be more respectful of a candidates time.
Confirmed questions2 questions
- They asked a few skill-based questions, but I feel much of their questioning surrounds company culture and how you will fit in at Smuckers.
- Some did talk about themselves and their views more than asking questions.
