      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at BNSF Railway

      Interview

      1) Apply Online 2) 1-2 Weeks later contacted by HR, Setup phone interview 3) Phone Interview with basic questions, invited to attend hiring event during phone interview. 4) Attended two day hiring event in Fort Worth, Air Fair and hotel where paid for. Large quantity of candidates for a very limited number of positions 5) Got results back the following week

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      They only asked four behavior based interview questions. Make sure you have very well thought out answers for many different questions. You must be willing to relocate anywhere for a position. I was told during the phone interview they wouldn't offer me a position somewhere I wouldn't be happy. However during the interview they basically told me I wouldn't have a chance at getting hired in the Northwest where I wanted to be.So it was essentially a waist of my time. Got a better position with another company.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at BNSF Railway (El Paso, TX) in Dec 2024

      Interview

      It was a digital interview, and I thought the whole pre recorded interview process was very nice and organized. I will say I wish there was more prep time for each question, that way I can prepare a little more on how to answer the question.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Describe a time where your team didn't agree with you and you had to persuade them to agree with you.

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at BNSF Railway (Chicago, IL) in Nov 2022

      Interview

      I applied online, and was sent a link to complete a personality test. I was then sent an email informing me of passing and moving on to the next step which was a Hirevue. After about a week or so (It was during Thanksgiving, so communication was delayed), I was sent a hiring event interview link for the final round of interviews. After that, it took about 4 days to get a on offer from HR
