A great, conversational interview. Interviewer opened with talk that led to a less intimidating process. Many questions were answered before I could think to ask. Critical thinking, scenario based questions.

The order, for me, went phone screening with HR, then phone interview with a Finance person, then I was given a week to perform a case study followed by a presentation to Finance leadership, then a panel interview, then a meet and greet with my future boss.

1st interview will be with a recruiter. Very easy, check the block type of questions to see if you qualify. 2nd interview was with department manager. I feel this was a personality test and experience check. 3rd will be technical with multiple people. All scenario based questions. There is also a case study that you will have one week to prepare and present.
- Why CSX? tons of technical and background?

It’s more of an overview on how they will try and control your home and work life in a mass group setting. After that, it’s like an interview where they try to be personable but there’s 4-6 people sitting in front on you laughing at each others questions.
- Do you have a flexible schedule?
