      Engineer-In-Training Interview

      24 Jan 2017
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Edmonton, AB
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at EPCOR (Edmonton, AB) in Jan 2017

      Interview

      Phone screening to ask about why should we hire you. Called in for an in person interview (same week as phone screening) which lasted an hour. 6 technical questions related to the position so I guess technical portion would depend on the type of job you are applying. 4 general behavioural questions. There were 3 interviewers and no HR. The department manager was a very rude person. Got selected for reference check (3 references) after interview. All the references said good stuff but the department manager at EPCOR wanted a direct supervisor reference. Since I was a recent grad, I could provide only 1 direct supervisor reference from internship and remaining references were from co-workers. I was rejected because I had only 1 direct supervisor reference. My referencers mentioned that the guy was extremely rude on phone and un-professional. He had set time to talk at 9:00 am but called at 10:00 am and didn't even apologize. Most of the people work till 5:00 pm and he also called some of my references after 5 pm. The call he made to references lasted about 50 minutes. He also asked some questions which he can't legally ask (e.g racial discrimination).
