I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at McMaster-Carr in Sep 2015
Interview
A referral lead to a phone interview conducted on two separate calls. Initially, the interviewer asked whether I had questions which threw me off as normally you talk a bit about yourself first. After asking questions you then go through your resume and explain it in depth. Upon completing the interview you hear within a week or two whether you will be continuing on to the on site interview.
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.
