I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Grainger in Oct 2011
Interview
Basic behavioral quesitons. Very friendly interviewer. Young. Took notes on computer to give to higher recruiter-- wasn't in charge of making decision. Questions asked: Explain how you overcame a challenge. Sell me this pen. Why should I hire you and not my next interviewee.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Grainger (Lincolnshire, IL) in Jul 2014
Interview
Took a phone interview, pretty basic and straight forward. Then the in-person interview with HR manager and TSR manager. Didn't get offered the position because they were looking for one position.
I applied through other source. I interviewed at Grainger
Interview
I met the interviewer at a job fair. It was obvious that he was new to management and wasn't too good at interviewing. I was offered the position and it turns out that I had to jump through several HR hoops to actually get it. It was pretty ridiculous.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
None. All questions were very generic and easy to answer.
