United States Steel Interview Questions & Reviews

Interview Details – Interviewing managers seemed distant, concerned about what's happening at the plant, instead of what's going on in the interview. When I asked questions about their safety record, I got glossed over answers.

Reason for Declining – Some questions I asked were not answered straightforwardly. Interviewing manager kept looking around for clues on the wall.

Interview Details – The interview process went very well. It was hosted on a large university campus, with many other interviews before and after myself. Overall, the interview was very comfortable.

Reason for Declining – I chose graduate school.

Interview Details – Slow process. Had to interview with 5 different people some at the same time. Lots of questions but seemed like no one on the interviewing committee knew what they were talking about I got several different job descriptions for the same job(this should have clued me in) Wishwasy company. They asked me if I was interested in climbing the ladder due to my 3 degrees sure I wanted to climb the ladder but not at the expense of my family and life.

Negotiation Details – came in at a low ball offer and I went back with a counter and they said I can take it or leave it (after about 2 weeks waiting) but I explained that I had 10 years experience and Masters in electrical engineering, associate in accounting and BS in physics but that not seem to matter I guess i should have known better then take a job like this I have never had anyone say take it or leave it.

Interview Details – Got a call from a recruiter to set up a phone interview. Performed my phone interview with very basic questions. Was told that I would get a reply for the position the following two weeks. Instead, I get no response from the company at all.

Interview Details – The hiring process was quite slow, with multiple people performing long interviews. Some individuals had poignant questions filtered into the mix of the typical interview script, while others didn't appear to even appear to know what the job truly entailed (should've been my first clue not to consider their offer).
After the tedious interview process, I had to wait weeks to hear anything.

Negotiation Details – I was thrown a lowball offer initially. I immediately countered and received a slow counter (slow is a watchword with this company). After I rejected their counter I actually received a revised offer with some speed which was still unsatisfactory. They countered again, but it was so slow I actually had to call them and tell them I was going to accept another job offer the following day if they wanted to try to counter again. They gt back to me that same day and I accepted (never should have- I should've taken the other offer and run!).

Interview Details – Had phone interview one week after applying online. and, had one on one interview one week after the phone interview

Interview Details – I applied online and received a call from an HR person to answer some follow up questions. I then received another call from HR and did a preliminary phone interview where I was asked some basic behavioral questions and what my salary requirement was. Next I was asked to come in for an in-person interview with the plant manager, the HR person, and three supervisors. All of the interviews were very formal and relaxed except the one with the plant manager. He was very straightforward and serious in his questions. After the interview I received a couple of calls back fro HR letting me know the interview went well and that they would be extending me an offer.

Reason for Declining – I declined due to the fact that the position requires you to work rotating shifts and I am still finishing my degree.

Interview Details – Questions were asked regarding education and work experience. Along with favorite and least favorite University course.
