It was all surrounded around the STAR Method. Situation, Task, Action, Result. Prepping beforehand makes this a lot easier. Do not reference your notes during this time though. It's your average behavioral questions with two 30 minute interviews.

I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Caterpillar
Interview
Went to my University Career Fair and was told to apply online through the University recruiting website. I sent in my resume and was offered an interview. The interview was an hour long with 2 half hour sessions with 2 interviewers. The questions were behavioral based and pretty standard. They told me that they would call me for an on-site interview if selected but they didn't do that and gave me an offer instead.

I applied through university. I interviewed at Caterpillar (Detroit, MI) in Sept 2017
Interview
STAR Process. There was a lot of behavioral questions that were not very difficult to answer. My interviewer was in a similar role so a lot of back and forth dialogue. This made the entire process flow and not much uneasy moments.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you lead a team and had success?
I applied through university. I interviewed at Caterpillar
Interview
It was very straightforward. It was back to back 30-minute interviews with 2 different individuals in technical marketing. I researched the company and was able to speak on current events. Their business is changing and they are looking for employees who share their vision of change and who want to make the world a better place. Seeing the big picture of building a bigger world is essential and if you can tie your experience to their vision you will stand out. Also, don't bring up current financial position.
