Eaton Aerospace Executive Assistant Interview Questions & Reviews

Interviewed Nov 2011 in Tijuana, Estado de Baja California (Mexico) (took 4+ weeks)

I applied for the Administrative Assistant to General Manager position online. I was contacted the same day of my application by the HR department for an initial telephone screen. Phone screen was very relaxed. I was asked to answer general questions on past experience and behavioral issues and how I would react in certain situations. The HR person sounded excited about my background and asked if I could come in for a personal interview the following week. The personal interview was a 1:1 with another HR person, who was very polite. The interview went very smoothly. The initial feedback was that my background was perfect for the position and that it would come down to a personality match. I was informed that I would be called on for a third and final interview in the week to come. A month passed and nothing. I never heard back from this person. I did call and email to follow up and I was plainly ignored. The lack of professionalism and common diplomacy was simply not there. I was very disappointed when I was finally able to reach the HR person that had interviewed me, and she was very rude on the phone, stating that they had hired a different candidate – she bluntly hung up and that was it.
