      Management Development Program Interview

      15 Feb 2021
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through university. I interviewed at McMaster-Carr

      Interview

      From a few years ago, but the experience was so striking that I had to leave a review. I had a phone screen and then was flown out for a full day of onsite interviewing. During the onsite, I met with 6 different employees and was matched with an employee for an informal lunch interview. There were a lot of behavioral questions, and I actually liked the interview process as I felt it was reflective of the work you would actually do there - many of the questions were like "what do you think this process is used for? Why do we do it that way? What would you improve?" However, what stood out was the huge performance by the senior most manager at the end of the day when he "discovered" all of my interviewers were white males, and insisted that was not reflective of the company. He then paraded me through the company grounds insistent on showing me that there were women/non-white individuals who worked there. It was extremely awkward, especially when he could not find any except a few interns. The experience put me off the whole company and when I spoke with 2 other women who had interviewed there around the same time they said they had the exact SAME experience, right down to being walked through the company grounds. I am not sure if this was the quirky behavior of one interviewer, but would not consider working at this company solely because of this experience. I hope the practices have changed since then.
