Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Medline Industries (Chicago, IL)
Colloquio
In the end - I interviewed virtually with 6 different people, on 3 different days, for this position. Each interview almost exclusively consisted of "tell me about a time" behavioral questions as well as an opportunity for questions. This is quite unusual for an engineering position, from my experience. I was a little upset that so much of my time was taken up, as I feel that companies should be able to filter out candidates for a lack of behavioral fit after 1 or 2 interviews. In fairness to Medline though - I asked them to make a final decision (which ended up being a rejection) before receiving an unsolicited acceptance or rejection ,because I had another outstanding offer I needed to respond to.

Colloquio
Long waste of time: phone screen, test, and you have to come in and interview twice for the same position. Went through this whole process 4 times and got rejected. Most of the interviewers are not engineers and worked their way up with no technical acumen. They have no idea what a truly good engineering candidate is. The last comment I received was “we aren’t really looking for an outside the box thinker.” Was a total waste of time.
