Director at Newmont Mining

Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Denver, CO Feb 2011 – Reviewed Sep 17, 2012

Interview Details – Most interesting part was that they had me put together a slide presentation about myself, explaining why I'd be good at the job. I thought that was clever way to do it.

Interview Question – Questions weren't that hard.   Answer Question

Emerging Talent Program at Newmont Mining

No Offer – Interviewed in Denver, CO Apr 2012 – Reviewed Apr 13, 2012

Interview Details – There were two days of interviews. The first day was a half hour meeting at the company headquarters with three people from different sections. They basically just asked about my experience, why I chose my graduate degree, what my career interests are. The second round didn't take place for another month. I had a series of one on one interviews with various members of the internal audit section. This one was a little more in-depth about why I wanted to work for Newmont, my career aspirations, and my skills set. One thing that stuck out to me was that all but one of the five people I met with was brought on board the company by a mentor who came to work there. Seems like you won't get a job if you don't know someone in the company who's willing to sponsor you.

Interview Question – Why would you want to work for Newmont rather than a big 4 firm?   Answer Question

Manager at Newmont Mining

Declined Offer – Interviewed in Denver, CO Jun 2011 – Reviewed Sep 1, 2011

Interview Details – Worst HR screener I have ever encountered:
HR:
- Did not call during the scheduled meeting time and indicated that "my PC crashed".
- When I rescheduled the call, HR phoned me an hour early and asked for a different interview candidate.
- Told me "this interview is over unless you provide me with your salary info"
- After the interview, called the wrong person to let me know about the opportunity.

Interview Questions

Reason for Declining – HR was inept. Speaks volumes about the organization
