      Distribution Operations Specialist Interview

      23 Jul 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Los Angeles, CA
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at McMaster-Carr (Los Angeles, CA) in Jul 2018

      Interview

      Received a text message from the recruiter, which I thought was very weird and unprofessional. She asked when I wanted to have a phone interview. Was around schedule when she called. She failed to ask your normal type behavior questions, she was unclear. Gave a fake feel of the company. I did not want to work for a company like this and I rescinded my application.

      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at McMaster-Carr (Aurora, OH) in Oct 2025

      Interview

      Recruiter reached out on LinkedIn. I did a phone interview with a different recruiter. The interviewer didn’t seem prepared. I was asked why I wanted to leave my current job. Next was behavior STAR questions. End of the interview the recruiter talked about coming in for an interview and discussed what that would look like. Then ghosted me before I reached out for a formal rejection. It was bizarre and unprofessional.

      Anonymous employee
      Atlanta, GA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at McMaster-Carr (Atlanta, GA) in Dec 2020

      Interview

      A recruiter reached out to me after finding my resume on Indeed. We scheduled a time to discuss the opportunity, my previous experiences as they related to the job, and next steps in the interviewing process. My first interview took an hour. My next interview happened a week and a half later via Zoom. I interview with three different people who worked in the department that I was being recruited. The first took a little over an hour where I was given a virtual tour of the building and the area I would be working in. At the end of the tour he asked several questions based on what had been discussed during the tour focusing on my observation skills. The second interview was about 45 minutes where I discuss my previous role and how they related to the current role. He asked a lot of questions regarding my problem solving skills and I how was able to resolve issues. My final interview went more in-depth on my past career as in related to my operational experiences. She also asked which department I could see myself working in and why. The entire interaction with all the interviewers was very organic. I enjoyed the pace and the overall experience.
