I had an initial interview with HR followed by a conversation with the hiring manager. Both interviews were straightforward but mostly consisted of standard, automated questions (Describe your strengths and weaknesses). While the process was polite and organized, I haven’t received any follow-up or update in about two months. The compensation and benefits package also appeared to be below industry average.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Bigelow Tea (Fairfield, CT) in Oct 2021
Interview
Very long interview process that took several months consisting of multiple (3+) one on one interviews, followed by an on-site interview marathon essentially, which took up an entire work day. The interviews themselves however weren’t very difficult for the most part.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Explain step by step how you would approach an issue on the production line
It went very well. The interviewer was very friendly and made me feel comfortable. We talked about my experience, and I even found out that the interview knew the people at one of my old jobs
