      Business Generalist Interview

      16 Mar 2015
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Aurora, IL
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at McMaster-Carr (Aurora, IL) in Feb 2015

      Interview

      The interview has 3 main components a tour in which you are expected but not told to answer questions, an interview portion and a situational problem-solving activity. It lasted a whole afternoon. The interview was very helpful in getting an understanding of the work since the job description is not very clear. I would suggest that interviewees are very familiar with their website since it is what everyone uses to answer questions on the job. The business looked well run and like the employees were generally happy.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at McMaster-Carr (Elmhurst, IL) in Feb 2015

      Interview

      Fairly easy and casual interview process. The interview consisted of a tour of their shipping floor by the HR representative that contacted me for the position. I then met with another woman who walked me through a training exercise and then I sat with a current employee to get better acquainted with the job

      Why do we organize our shipping floor as its setup?
