      Intern Interview

      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Muscatine, IA
      Declined offer
      Neutral experience

      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at HNI (Muscatine, IA)

      Interview

      Spoke with company at the career fair where I set up an on-campus interview. Following the interview, I was asked to attend an on-site interview where about 20 interns rotated through 3 recruiters each (one HR, one technical, and one previous experience). We then went on a facility tour. I was contacted a week later with results. In general, the employees were nice. Some did not seem genuinely interested in speaking with intern candidates, though.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Tell me about a time when you... dealt with an ethical issue, worked in a group where someone didn't pull their weight, least favorite and favorite courses, etc.
