I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Cargill in Sep 2016
Interview
The interviewer was really friendly, and warned me the previous day when I set up the interview that they ask behavioral based questions. I was glad she gave me the heads up, otherwise I would have been completely unprepared as I have never had behavioral questions before.

Question 1
Name one time I had to deal with a difficult situation.
Online technical interview with relevant questions to the department's research work. Focus on R&D expertise, critical thinking, analytical thinking, and problem-solving skills related to your background and upcoming project. Make sure to prepare basic questions like "Tell me about your background?"

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Cargill (Minneapolis, MN) in Feb 2025

Mostly just technical questions with two analysts that work in the department, going over and talking about resume and then technical questions based off of the resume related to the role's requirements
Online, two other people interviewing. They were very friendly. Explained each of their roles then asked about myself. The following was just more behavioral based being it was first round.
