Ingersoll-Rand Interview Questions & Reviews

Interview Details – Panel interview with Behavioral Questions

Interview Details – I applied online. Then HR contacted and fixed a phone interview. Had one round of technical plus HR interview with a team of 4 hiring managers.

Interview Details – I met with a couple of recruiters from Ingersoll Rand at the career fair at the 2013 NSBE Fall National Conference in Indianapolisand they referred me to their colleagues at the Trane plant in Tyler Texas.
3 days later, I got a call from a lady in Tyler who set up a phone screening session. Two days later I had the phone screening session with an early talent recruiter. The following week, I had a phone interview with a panel of 2 engineers who were looking for interns and the lady from the phone screening session.
The interview was all based on the STAR method (Situation, Task, Approach and Result) all behavioral questions. The interview lasted 30-40 minutes. In the 1st half they asked me their questions and in the 2nd half I got to ask my questions like "what an intern does on a day to day basis" "how the work structure is: group-wise or solo"
At the end, I was told to expect an email that evening or the next day letting me know the outcome of the interview.
I received my offer that evening by phone from the Early Talent Recruiter I had worked with from the start. The email containing the written offer followed 10 minutes late

Reason for Declining – Got a offer with a more desirable location

Interview Details – Phone interview first, in-person scheduled a few weeks later. Interview process was very thorough and everyone was friendly. I was assured that promotion from within was the standard, but have since learned that's not necessarily the case. Hiring process takes a long time; it was 3 weeks from the initial phone interview until I heard back about the job. This seems to be the standard.

Negotiation Details – I was offered more than I had made in my previous position with ample time off. I accepted without negotiation.

Interview Details – The interview process began with a phone call and then a face to face interview with 4 different functional leaders, including the hiring manager and an HR manager. The face to face interview consisted of a 30 presentation of my choosing and then 30 minute interviews with each of the functional leaders. The best part was definitely getting to design my own presentation. I created a PowerPoint slide deck that answered all the job description elements one at a time in regards to my experience, skills, and knowledge.

Negotiation Details – The negotiation phase was more an offer based on the role and not as much about my particular skills, although the strength of my resume made me the leading candidate.

Interview Details – Had one interview with a leadership group of about 10 people. Every person asked multiple questions, but they asked them at any time - not just going from one person to another person. The local leadership didn't ask much except what my prior experiences were and didn't probe deep into my work history. The HR manager asked the harder questions.
