J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. J'ai passé un entretien chez McMaster-Carr (Los Angeles, CA)
Entretien
It's as everyone describes below. A day long affair from one interviewer to the next. They reached out to me, got the phone interview that same day, and was offered an in-person the following week. I had a fun time. The staff was extremely friendly and the interviewers were very enjoyable to talk to. They really want to get to know you and how your brain works so they ask you thought provoking questions meant to see your thought processes. They offer a very competitive salary and benefits, so they obviously want somebody who is capable of handling and thinking through challenging issues and tasks.

Incredibly drawn out and tedious interview process with 9 total “interviews” for the entire process, including 5 on the on-site final round. Open-ended questions about yourself and different processes/projects at the company.

Made it past phone call screening and had a one-on-one chat with a current manager before final round of interviews. Each round was 45 minutes to an hour long and questions were difficult. Have lots of examples ready. Have different answers ready for similar questions.

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.
