I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at C.H. Robinson (Eden Prairie, MN) in Jul 2009
Interview
I initially applied online. I was contacted via email by a recruiter who set up a preliminary phone interview with very basic questions. She then set up a 2nd interview with a different recruiter which was the actual interview, again over the phone. I then had more of a meet and greet with managers/supervisors in the office I would potentially be working in. It was an opportunity for me to sit with a few people, ask questions, and for both parties to make sure it was a good fit. I wasn't asked any interview type questions at this stage, which I was surprised by, it was an opportunity for me to ask them questions.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Describe a situation when you went above and beyond the standard call of duty to achieve a goal.
recruiter phone screen → 1–3 interviews (behavioral, sometimes case/technical) → final panel or hiring manager interview; may include assessments or presentations. there was an in person meeting at the end at the office
Positive, very clear about interview process and role expectations. Transparent about culture and pay structure. Felt inviting and warm. Pretty easy interview, they just wanted to know more about me and if my personality would fit in well with the culture and team.
Good interview. Liked how professional the recruiter was. Also liked how professional the process was when go to the in person interview. Happy with the company's interview process and their people.
