I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at 3M (Saint Paul, MN) in Aug 2012
Interview
I applied after college graduation through the 3M hiring website. About two weeks later the manager emailed me and asked if I was still interested and said she'd like to set up a time to do a phone interview. The phone interview was very short and more just used to schedule a time to set up an in-person interview in St. Paul. I interviewed the same week as the phone interview with the manager and five other analysts in the business group. It was about 2 hours long. Very basic interview questions. Offer letter came the next week. There is room for negotiations.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do you want this job? How do you handle stress? How do you manage competing priorities? Do you know how to use a computer?
I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at 3M (Cumberland, WI)
Interview
The interview consisted of only behavioral based questions. There were no questions directly related to the position. I was interviewed by a panel of three people in my department, two co workers and my supervisor.
The interview process was pretty straight forward with no surprises. Lots of experience based questions and questions to better understand if you would be a good fit at the company.
I applied through online. My interview was with the manager and board members.
3 candidates at a time were interviewed. There is a health checkup afterwards.
Mostly just average questions. There was 1 very unusual question regarding personal habits.
So to think of it, lacking common sense.
