Interview Details – applied online. initial interview via telephone with the recruiter. invited onsite to interview for role with the hiring manager, another finance director and a finance manager. was contacted a month or two later to come back in for another round of interviews. during this time i found out that the job i interviewed for had been given to someone else who had been working since shortly after i was in and that i was back for a completely different role that was to report to the finance manager manager that interviewed with before. so this time i met with him, the finance director again and a newly promoted finance manager. another month or so passed when i got an email from the HR recruiter stating that they had gone with someone else and that he would keep my in mind for future opportunities

Safety Engineer at Ingredion
No Offer – Interviewed in Indianapolis, IN Jan 2013 – Reviewed Feb 7, 2013
Interview Details –
I bypassed the phone interview and was brought onsite to interview. The HR rep sat me in a room and said it would be a fairly short interview.
The first interviewer was awfully sick and looked miserable. He asked me more about what I liked to do in my free time instead of any work experience. His phone also went off the whole time and he did NOT silence it. Very distracting.
The second interviewer texted throughout my interview and would make comments when she got a funny text. She also found out I went to school with someone she knew and just took notes about that.
Third and fourth interviewers were okay. Asked more about me, rather than work experience.
I was finished three hours later and I felt my time was completely wasted.

Interview Details – Communication with the company was prompt. The internal recruitere was thorough and sent confirmation emails after voicemails or phone conversations. These emails helped to confirmation appointment dates and times and the people in which I would have interviews. The office appeared to be quiet located inside of a complex shared with companies.
