I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Gates Corporation (Denver, CO) in Sep 2015
Interview
Interview process is ad hoc--very little structure. Starts with phone screening by HR, usually just re-iterates your resume--and determines your salary requirements. Very little to prepare for, and they are very focused on knowing if your salary needs are acceptable. For an IT organization, not much in the form of technical focus in 1 v. 1 interviews, mostly ask that you explain skills and experiences.
I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Gates Corporation in Dec 2011
Interview
Interviewed with Plant Mgr. (one on one interview) Asked allot of questions about my background. And questioned my troubleshooting skills. Offered position. Accepted
