      Sourcing Interview

      Oct 22, 2015
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Minneapolis, MN
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at General Mills (Minneapolis, MN)

      Interview

      They asked three basic behavioral based interview questions that were related to past job experience and school experiences. They also asked two questions that were directly related to sourcing at General Mills. These questions were much tougher, especially if you don't know much about sourcing.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      If you were a flour buyer for General Mills and you want to buy flour but the price just went up, what do you do?

      Sourcing Interview

      Nov 14, 2010
      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at General Mills in Jul 2008

      Interview

      While the interview process was fast, it took a little while for the offer to come. I also had to wait six weeks to start.

      Interview questions [2]

      Question 1

      The personality test was really weird. There was a question about if you felt loved as a child by your parents.

      Question 2

      It was very important to be innovative and inquisitive. They asked me a lot of questions and wanted to hear my opinion and why I had that opinion. For example, where is the price of oil going?
