      Management Trainee Interview

      Jan 23, 2014
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Elmhurst, IL
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at McMaster-Carr (Elmhurst, IL) in Jan 2014

      Interview

      Applied through a university recruiting website. I was initially declined but I then applied again through a different website and received a phone interview a few days later. They seemed really interested in my school rather than me personally. They then asked me to come to their headquarters in Elmhurst, IL. There were 4-5 back-to-back interviews. I though they had all gone fairly well, actually. Surprise, surprise. I received an email two weeks later indicating that I was not chosen. Not sure what their interviewing criteria is, but I guess I didn't figure it out.

      Anonymous employee
      Chicago, IL
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at McMaster-Carr (Chicago, IL)

      Interview

      The interview process was absolutely phenomenal from start to finish. I really appreciated that the discussions were fully behavioral, allowing me to naturally draw on my past experiences. Furthermore, the company truly goes out of its way to treat you like a VIP throughout the entire visit, covering a remarkably nice hotel stay and providing a generous stipend to ensure you are completely comfortable.

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at McMaster-Carr (Chicago, IL)

      Interview

      One behavioral interview with a recruiter and then a day-long onsite interview at the Elmhurst IL location. Superday has two behavioral interviews, walkarounds and more but feels like you're being observed everyday.
