Kimberly-Clark Financial Analyst Interview Questions & Reviews

Interview Details – Applied through career center at school. Was selected for an on campus interview. Had a meet and greet the night before the interview with 3 people from the company. Initial interview was very casual, mostly behavioral, with one technical question. Then was invited to for an interview at the Neenah Wisconsin campus. two day interview process day one was a town tour and dinner. day two was a manufacturing plan tour and four 45 minute interviews. 3 of the interviews were behavioral and technical, while the fourth was a case study.

Interview Details – I learned of the company and this opportunity through university recruiting and a career fair. I dropped my resume with them after stopping by their booth at the career fair and chatting with a young employee. I was then invited a few days later via email for an on-campus interview. There was a mixer the night before the interview with young employees a year removed from college and some upper level management. This is a laid back environment in which they just want to see if you can be social and keep a conversation going.

The first interview was on-campus and lasted 30 minutes. This mainly consists of standard behavioral interview questions. If you have any internship or professional experience, they prefer to see you relate to those experiences in your answers. I was then selected a week later via email inviting me to interview for the second and final round on-site in Roswell, Ga.

The final round consists of four consecutive interviews with different members of various divisions within KC. There is a break after your third interview, and this is when you will take a campus tour and eat lunch with some of the young employees. Within the four interviews, three are back to back with final one occurring after lunch. Three interviews are behavioral and there is one generic basic case study in which you read through many emails and pick out relevant information regarding a particular project and make a final recommendation.

Interview Details – Had a 1:1 interview on campus first. One week later they asked me to come down to their corporate headquarters in Atlanta. It was a total of 5 hours and had 4 one hour interviews and a case study. 2 weeks later I got an email saying they gave it to another candidate.

Interview Details – First had an interview on my college campus through our career center, then got an invitation to do an on site interview. The on site interview consisted of four 1 hour long interviews, with mostly behavioral questions and a case interview. They gave us tours of their facilities and served us dinner the night before. The company culture seemed great, everyone I talked to was very friendly.

Interview Details – Gone through phone interview, then invited to the on campus interview in Atlanta, did 3 behaviors interview and one in-basket exercise. Got an offer 2 weeks later.

Interview Details – Applied via my university job board. This appeared to be a pre-screening interview; I passed and was referred to sign up via a website and would wait for the second round of interviews. I did not make it to the second round as I think I waited too long to sign up (+1 week), so definitely apply early. Interview was very relaxed, was with the Director of Mergers & Acquisitions.

Interviewer had a list of questions and wrote down the responses.

Interview Details – The interview process covers basic behavioral questions, ie. How did you react in X situation? How do you deal with conflict? One interview was a bit more technical, ie. Explain rate of return to a non finance person. Overall, a relaxed environment and a great insight into company culture.

I was flown into Roswell the day before and stayed in a hotel down the street. At about 9, I began a string of interviews with members of my potential department. Each lasted about 45 min. At lunch, I spoke with employees in the position I applied for. After lunch I had one final interview and I was finished by about 3pm. They drove me to the airport and I departed for another interview in another state.
