I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at McMaster-Carr (New York, NY) in Jan 2016
Interview
McMaster-Carr was participating in a job fair in NYC. I applied online and was pre-selected for an initial interview. I interviewed in person with 2 people, and was asked mainly behavioral questions, and to describe certain parts of my resume in further detail. I was told that the next step in the process would be a second interview and that in the following two weeks I would receive an email informing me of their decision.
straight forward but harder. they grilled me with everything and its different for sure. they kept asking me questions about my answer. im not sure how i failed. yes yes yes yes yes
Very Easy basic behavior stuff. Asked me to describe myself and how I am as a leader in different spaces. Told me I needed to be an individual who doesn’t look to be told what to do next but rather self initiates their next move individually in order to be successful at the company.
