I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at PepsiCo in Oct 2009
Interview
I was hired straight out of college... It's important to stress examples of leadership, a strong care for product quality (delighting the consumer), and an eye for safety. The interview process was with a few members of the factory's leadership team. Expect to go on a plant tour and learn how the chips are made. Frito loves to hire engineers, but please be aware that the Operations Resource position is all about being a supervisor --- not an engineer. The interviewers will likely ask if you're willing to work long hours (11+ per day), weekends, and off-shifts. If you decline, you won't be getting the job. But if you say yes, be ready to deal with a very hardworking, fast-pasted environment where you *will* be working an off-shift, weekends, and holidays.

I applied through university. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at PepsiCo
Interview
Long process but they take the time to get to know you and allow you to get to know the company and culture which is great. Involved 3 stages; 2 panel interviews and then a 1:1 on-site interview with the manager and a final interview with the District manager. HR was great and kept in touch along the way to provide updates and check-in. Got to meet several employees throughout the process to learn about their experience and career paths.

Interview
Submitted my resume at a career fair. Got a call from HR within several days. Had my initial interview that same week at the university with two higher up plant managers. I was then contacted for an onsite interview about one to two weeks later. This consisted of a plant tour and 3 different interview sections with about 10 different managers total from the plant including the director, followed by an HR meeting to discuss salary.
