I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at C.H. Robinson
Interview
The whole process took about two weeks. I started with an on-campus interview following a career fair through my university. That passed me on to a branch interview with the sales manager and VP.
The screening interview is incredibly standard. 30min fact finding and going over my resume.
The branch interview is separated into three parts.
The initial panel of back and forth scenario type questions, more resume questions, and behavioral.
After that it's a tour around the floor and some one-on-one time with one or two different sales reps on the floor getting to know the ins and outs of their jobs.
After that it's back to the panel for follow up questions which are more or less "what did you learn" and "do you still want to work here" type questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Very simple interview process - most "difficult" questions are scenario style involving a task you would complete on the job.
The process took 1 week. I interviewed at C.H. Robinson (Chicago, IL)
Interview
Long but not too stressful. they take you down to shadow employees and then interview you further. behavioral questions mainly.first started with a phone interview then asked what time next week to come in and go from there.
I applied through a recruiting session at my university. First interview was on campus, lasted about 30min. Be prepared with notes about the company's background, roles, history, mission statement. Lots of behavioral questions about past job experience and other questions about competitiveness. Come prepared with two questions about the companies culture, two questions about the role, two questions about the company, and two questions about the interviewer. The first interview is all about if you did you're homework or not. The second interview took place at C.H Robinson's office in Chicago. From the second you walk through those doors they are testing you. Don't be on your phone while waiting in the lobby and treat the receptionist properly. You shadow an employee on the customer side and the carrier side of the business; Ask them lots of questions! After shadowing there are two more interviews with a role play exercise.

Why 3PL?
Tell me about a time you were competitive and how can you use that at C.H Robinson
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at C.H. Robinson (Luxembourg)
Interview
Phone call then in person interview. The guy was friendly and so was the atmosphere. He basically explained the job while asking contextual questions/my opinion on the matter. The main think he tried to assess was basic understanding / ability to speak clearly / motivation for the job.
