Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a time that you were disappointed because something didn't go as you expected and how you handled it.
Panel interview…was laid back…got the interview after applying online 2 weeks before…the interview was onsite. It’s been over a week since the on-site interview, so it’s safe to say they hired another candidate. I expect to receive the rejection email any day now.
The interview process was with 4 people, and at the beginning they were very kind, later on, it took aroun 1 hour to answer all the questions that every person had, but it was a behavioral interview.
Introduction of the interviewer short introduction of myself and why i want to work for BASF. Normal questions and a lot about how I solve problems and how i react in challenging situtations
