Question 1
Asked specifically about classes I took in college
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Northrop Grumman in Dec 2014
Interview
Too many “chefs stirring the pot” during the recruitment process. One person makes initial contact, another sets up the interview, and a third informs you of the disposition (that is, if you get informed at all). It prevents the candidate from developing even the slightest of rapports with a recruiter. This shouldn’t be the case – especially since the recruitment is done in-house.
I knew we were off to a bad start when the previous interviewee was parting ways with the hiring manager as I was being escorted in by one of her subordinates. That showed a lack of professionalism. Once we got started, she seemed unprepared and what was really shocking was her ignorance of and total lack of context for the current state of the industry – really surprising since it looks like she’s about a 10-year veteran of the company so that shouldn’t be an excuse. I came away with the impression that while this interviewer may be book smart, she was completely lacking in emotional intelligence. Case in point: one should not be referring to a tenured employee and subordinate as a “girl who works for me”. Seriously?!? Astounding that an individual so lacking in refinement and polish could be representing Northrop Grumman at any managerial level. I’ve had other interviews at NG that have gone well – this was just not one of them.
I am describing the interview process. After submitting an application, I was followed up with to schedule a phone interview. Had the interview and it went well. I had the second interview a week later. Waiting on a response now.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Northrop Grumman (New York, NY) in Oct 2015
Interview
Received a phone call from initial recruiter, followed by emails from secondary recruiter. Then had a phone interview due to me being located out of state. Received a call from initial recruiter two days later stating there was some slight over sight to my application and she thought I had already received certain mandatory qualifications instead of currently working towards them. Either way, there were too many people with their hands "in the cookie jar" so communication was definitely an over sight. Wasted an entire afternoon prepping and interviewing for a position I would've never have been considered for in the first place.
