Georgia-Pacific Reliability Engineer interview questions

The interview process consisted of an application online, a phone screen, and an on-site interview. All interview expenses were covered by the company. The phone screen was fairly basic, with a few general questions related to my experience and some situations. There were technical questions relating to general principles, but nothing requiring computation. The phone screen included two employees in the area hiring for the posted position. This call lasted about 45 minutes. The on-site interview was one of the best I have ever experienced. The company was very prepared to interview and extended me the same courtesy by providing detailed directions, covering all travel expenses, and providing a detailed itinerary of the interview including the names and titles of those interviewing me (about 6 different interviewers). I was provided with instructions to the nature of the behavior-based interview and sample questions. This made it easy to prepare for the interview and cater my expected responses to highlight specific experiences that I thought would best relate to the person interviewing me. It also helped me focus my research on the company and ask intelligent questions of the right people. This was not an easy interview however. The interviewers were all well prepared and asked for examples and follow-up questions to many items. The interview lasted almost a full 8 hours (including lunch, which was not a grueling interview time). This was a very positive experience for me and I was very impressed with G-P and their interview process.

The interview processs for Georgia Pacific-Koch Industries is a SBO situation behavior outcome based. ie - "tell me about a time". I would recommend you become familiar with Koch industries MBM guiding principles. Also read The Science of Success by Charlie Koch. Really a pretty lame process as GP is under a huge transition after being purchased and gone private. Also, the company went through "Rapid Transformation" head count reduction after the purchase.
