      Research Assistant Interview

      13 Jun 2017
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Toronto, ON
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Shawcor (Toronto, ON) in Apr 2017

      Interview

      two on one interview. Interviewers were alright but they asked a bunch of technical "electrical" questions from a chemical engineering student. I of course had no clue....and about polymers and to draw a structure,...and how you would obtain info on a certain material etc etc. I was expecting behavioral type questions,....it wasn't as if i was writing a test,..so its bit unexpected to be asked on all technical stuff.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Something about a dielectric and how they effect the piping coating

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Shawcor (Toronto, ON)

      Interview

      When I entered the interviewing room the manager and the senior scientist greeted me. They were very friendly and asked how I was doing. They asked me what I knew about ShawCor and why I applied. They asked me if I was comfortable working in a semi-industrial environment. Most of the questions were related to the polymers and pipeline industry. Overall, the interview went by very quickly and they gave me lots of time to ask them questions.

      Question 1

      They brought in a cross-section of a pipe and asked me to label all the different layers by their material and their function.
