I applied online. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at General Mills (Golden Valley, MN) in Aug 2019
Interview
Process was roughly 8 weeks: initial phone screen with a Finance Manager followed by personality testing and finally onsite interviews. Onsite interview included a quick tour and lunch with a peer in the corporate cafeteria. All interviews included standard behavioral questions. Everyone was very friendly and open to sharing more about General Mills and the open role. HR meets with you after the interviews to touch base and send you out with a goodie bag.
light hearted intro call (10 mins) next round 1 on 1 with manager and final round was a more technical case study. Need to understand accounting at a very high level.
