Maple Leaf Foods Interview Questions & Reviews

Interview Details – Phone interview and three additional in-person interviews

Interview Details – Went to the interview downtown. Unfortunately the questions were incredibly difficult and I eventually gave up.

Interview Details – After applying online and interviewing for another job, I was referred to another recruiter for this position, which was a better fit. I was interviewed on the phone and then brought in for an in-person interview. I was then brought in for another interview, mentioning I might be considered for another position as well. The interview questions were mainly going over my resume and behavioural questions.

Overall, I had a negative experience because HR never returned my calls or emails following the last interview. I was forewarned that Maple Leaf Foods has a long hiring process, so I was prepared for the fact that I might have multiple (seemingly needless) interviews. However I did find it fairly rude that I was never contacted after a second interview, despite my following up numerous times. I'm not impressed.

Interview Details – I was not actively looking for employment and was contacted through my professional networking site for a job opportunity. MapleLeaf Foods has hired two very talented recruiters which made my decision to participate in the interview process.

I had a phone interview a panel interview at one location and a 1:1 at another location. Before each interview (at both locations) I was contacted a half an hour before each location interview to re-schedule. The interviews went well, however the feedback after the interview was that I wasn't flexible for the position. Perhaps, there was a misunderstanding during my interview, as I am flexible with my time and enjoy working from home as well as in the office.

Interview Details – I had three interviews. The first one was a behaviour based phone interview. The second interview was with the recruiter at head office. The third interview was with the HR hiring manager. At the end, I didn't get the job, however the interview experience was very positive since all interviews happened on a timely basis and the recruiter clearly communicated all of the steps to me.

Interview Details – The job was posted on a job board, but I submitted my resume through a MLF employee. I had a 1:1 interview with the recruiter which was a very positive experience. The initial face to face discussion ran over, and we had a follow-up phone discussion after to finish and also to receive tips on interviewing with the hiring manager. Then there was the face to face interview with the hiring manager and their direct manager. I found their questions to be direct and clear. However, I found it difficult to answer at times, as they would not allow me to expand on my answers. I would start my response, and before I could clarify or complete my thought, I would be given a follow up question of "Let me challenge you on this." At the end of the interview the one individual summed up what he felt was his overall impression of me, which I did not believe was accurate. With only 3 minutes to the end of the interview, and with both interviewers not having any additional time, it was difficult to change a perception based on answers that I felt could have been explained better had I been given the oppotunity.

Interview Details – Gave my resume to someone at the booth during a career fair and was called the next morning to schedule an interview. Interviewed one on one with 6 different people in management roles at the company. Very laid back interviewing style. Sort of had conversations with the people

Interview Details – The Talent Acquisition Specialist, Jennifer, was very nice and easy to deal with. Mostly behavioural questions.
