First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Transplace.
Dispatcher
The interview was really chill and felt easy. The person interviewing me was great and asked some standard interview questions. I actually got an offer on the very same day. It's a shame I was so young back then and didn't realize how much power and money I could have negotiated!
- What can I contribute to the team?
Software Developer
Applied online. Got a phone interview with a senior developer and manager. Phone screen went well. Then I had to come on-site for back-to-back technical interviews. It was easy, with simple algorithm questions, and questions about my work experience and how I approach solutions. They said they'd let me know in a few days, but HR never responded, even after I followed up multiple times. I liked the job and the interviewers were nice, but the HR person's attitude was totally unprofessional. Even a rejection should be communicated.
- Can you solve this algorithm problem?
- Describe your past work experience.
- How do you approach problem-solving?
Human Resources
The interview process was pretty long, but not too hard. First, the recruiter had me do an online assessment for HR called ProveIt testing, and then a personality test through Workforce Interactive. After that, I had three separate phone interviews: one with the recruiter, and then two with different HR team members in other states. Then came an in-person interview with the local management team for the specific location (not HR), right after which I interviewed with the VP of the local branch. A few days later, I had one last phone interview with another HR person out of state. So, that's 6 interviews total with about 10 people. My experience was good, and I feel they got the info they needed. I'd suggest combining some interviews though, as many questions were repeated, like they were reading from a script. Combining the in-person interviews and some phone calls into a group call would speed things up and reduce repetition. The HR team sounded good, and I'd consider applying again.
- Tell me about a time you had to handle conflict.
- Describe your experience with change management.
Logistics Analyst
I had 3 phone interviews that went well. Then, I had an onsite interview with 3 managers/directors, with one team joining from AZ. The hiring manager and HR told me the interviews went great and they'd get back to me soon. They didn't contact me for about 5 weeks, even after I followed up. They also took 6 weeks to reimburse my travel expenses from Houston to Dallas. It was a frustrating experience, and while I liked the job, their treatment was awful.
- Generic logistics interview questions focused on process improvement.
