United Airlines Program Manager Interview

Interviewed Feb 2011 in Chicago, IL (took a day)

I had a one on one with the hiring manager and an HR person. I did not feel particularly at ease as they had the "talent selection" questionnaire and followed it to the letter. I had other interviews where they had the script but did not act as though they were reading a teleprompter. There seemed to be little of the rapport building I have seen on other interviews.

I did not get the offer, I was called about 3-4 weeks later and told that while I was a strong candidate, they went with someone else. They promptly reposted the same position within a couple of days and I was locked out of reapplying for some reason. (This did not happen at another company I applied with when a position was reposted.)
