Pretty standard interview. They had an easy 30 min first interview with someone from HR just to see if you were a good fit for Dow and generally why you want to work at Dow/why you want that specific job. The second interview was with a panel of a few people who I would be working fairly close with and it was standard interview questions, behavioral questions and a Q&A at the end.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
For the 30 min HR interview - Why do you want to work for Dow, go through your experience/why you want that particular job, how would your boss describe you vs. how would your friends describe you, what do you like to do for fun, etc.
For the panel - tell me a time you enforced a safety standard in your workplace, why do you want to work at Dow, tell me a time you messed up at work (not the right wording but you get it...) and what did you do to resolve that, tell me about your relationship with and how you manage customer comments/compaints, etc.
Had one interview onsite that lasted about 1.5 hours. I interviewed in front of a panel of four people. Each person asked questions. They asked interview questions and then walked around the facility.

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Dow (Plaquemine, LA) in Jan 2025
Interview
The hiring process consisted of a single interview with a panel of four people, each asking behavioral-based questions. I was able to gain a clear understanding of the role, job expectations, and company culture. By asking detailed questions at the end, I left the interview with a solid picture of what working there would be like. Overall, it was a good experience.

Question 1
Can you describe a time when you worked in a group—either at school or work—where team members had differing opinions on how to approach a task? How did you navigate the situation, and what steps did you take to reach a final decision?
There was a screening process followed by a interview process. Screening was 15 minutes and the interview was 45 minutes. They had a specific list of questions that they asked, and requested that I utilize the STAR method to answer them.
