      Analyst Interview

      20 Apr 2012
      Anonymous employee
      Canton, OH
      Accepted offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Timken (Canton, OH) in Apr 2010

      Interview

      They use a set of canned questions and a panel grades you on your response. Like "tell me about a time when you made a mistake at your previous employer, what did you do to fix it?", or "tell me about a time when you disagreed with a coworker, what steps did you take to get them to leave you alone?". The BEST scores are generally for presenting your answer in a logical way. Presentation can weigh more than content. They are more impressed with your speaking skills than your actual answers. The average worker is a 50+ white male, born within 20 miles of Canton Ohio, willing to work 50 hours a week forever (theres not much to do in Canton anyway). This company has WAAAAY too many meetings. I probably averaged 24 hours of meetings per week, including some 8 hour staight ones. Upper management has nothing to do all day, so they schedule meetings to look like they are busy.

      Question 1

      Tell me about something you did that was wrong, and then how did you fix it?
