First met the recruiter at the career fair and was selected to have a one on one interview the next day. The interview was fairly straight forward. What is a problem you faced and how did you solve it type questions. After the interview took a 3 hour long personality and intelligence test.

Difficult Interview

Overall Positive Experience

Received and Declined Offer

Interviewed Jan 2008 in Salt Lake City, UT (took 2 days)

Union Pacific Railroad gave me a great opportunity. They were very professional and seemed to have a great group of people and a good employee culture. The sectors of the business varied enormously and the management of all levels of the company seemed a monumental task, although accomplished quite thoroughly. The interview was formal and a good experience at large corporation operation as I was nearly a new college grad.
