McMaster-Carr interview questions

The Process: Outreached and interviewed by a recruiter and moved to the final stage (2.5-hour on-site including a tour, another interview, and an assessment). The Pros: The recruiter and tour-related staff on-site were professional and welcoming. The Cons: Communication was disorganized. The recruiter attempted to schedule a prep call on a Sunday for a Monday interview. More importantly, there was a major disconnect regarding the assessment. Despite being told a supply chain/equipment background wasn't necessary due to their 6-month training program, the assessment was heavily technical. The Verdict: It is disappointing to invest significant time during the holidays only to be tested on knowledge I was told wasn't required. To improve, the recruiting team should ensure the "no experience needed" messaging aligns with the actual evaluation criteria. Additionally, providing high-level feedback after a lengthy on-site interview should be standard practice.

Invited to onsite tour followed by 2 45 minute behaviorals. Treated us to a dinner before hand as well as lunch at the office. Not too scary and full of interesting people.
