I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Arconic (Pittsburgh, PA) in Jan 2023

Interview

Teams meeting with the hiring manager then an on site interview with the hiring manager and 3 other team members. Total waste of time. Do not bother with a company that still requires in person interviews!

Application

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Arconic (Pittsburgh, PA) in Sep 2022

Interview

The interview process consisted of an over the phone interview, a video interview, and an in-person interview. After the final interview, I received an e-mail two days later notifying me that I was not selected for the job. Although the interview questions were not challenging, the hiring team potentially had higher standards. I felt the interview went fairly well. Overall, the process was efficient and the interviewers were very professional.

Interview Questions
  • Describe a time that you had to manage a conflict. Tell me about a time that you had to independently hit particular objectives.

I interviewed at Arconic

Interview

Smooth transition, a bit unorganized, new interviewer, new to the job. Turnover was high. Extremely unorganized company. Would not recommend to anyone. Outdated systems and slow. No diversity at the organized and not enough experience to pass on to new employees who were offered position. Pay is low as well.
