Very Difficult Interview

Overall Positive Experience

Received and Accepted Offer

Interviewed Sep 2011 in Plymouth, MI (took 4 weeks)

I was given a call back about my online application and asked to come in for an interview. My preliminary interview was with two Purchasing Managers and an HR Manager. After successfully interviewing, I was asked to come in and interview with two Purchasing Directors and the original Purchasing Managers. My third and final interview was with the North American Purchasing Vice President, whom I interviewed with for an hour. Each of the interviews I was met with about 5 to 10 minutes of warm up discussion followed by discussions about my relevant work experience pertaining to the Buyer Role I was applying for.

First, there was a phone interview that took about 20 to 30 minutes.

They asked standard interview questions, but I did not leave excited about the job.
