IT Intern at C.H. Robinson Worldwide

Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Eden Prairie, MN – Reviewed Apr 25, 2013

Interview Details – I met them at a college fair, and they seemed very open and nice. GPA does not matter as much to them, at least for IT interns, and at the location I applied for. The first interview they ask a lot of questions about you, and about what you know about the company. They really want to see how interested YOU are in the company, and how much research you did. The second interview is more technical, but not extreme. They are nice, and ask you things that you have mentioned in your resume, and give you hypothetical situations. I really enjoyed both of the interviews, and felt like they were well rounded.

Interview Question – They asked about how I have setup my personal servers, and wanted details of me explaining why I chose each step.   Answer Question

Negotiation Details – They offered me the job and I told them I would think about it. They said they were glad I was taking time, and looked forward to hearing from me. I responded a day later.

Operations Representative at C.H. Robinson Worldwide

No Offer – Interviewed in Stevens Point, WI Apr 2013 – Reviewed Apr 5, 2013

Interview Details – After filling out an application, I underwent a lengthy phone interview which lasted approx. 40 mins. and consisted of detailed questions regarding my prior industry experience. This went exceedingly well, but I found the HR - and the entire office staff - at my local branch to be exceedingly unprofessional. Rather than allow me to expound upon my skills and prior experience, they merely fired questions at me while being cold and stand-offish. While waiting for the interview, I noticed the employees there were dressed horribly and behaved rather unprofessionally. This was certainly not what I was expecting from a Fortune 500 company, and I definitely would NOT recommend this firm to anyone else.

Interview Question – Nothing out of the ordinary.   Answer Question
