Koch Industries Interview Questions

The interview process was different from any that I’d experienced before. It was a video interview and the Questions were more personal than standard “experience” questions. After getting the position; the 1st time I met my manager, her initial greeting was, “I’m so Happy you’re here. I feel like I know you already.”

Applied it through university / college placements and had one online round with multi choice questions and coding questions following which the short listed students had one tech + managerial round.

Interview process was very impressive. Was very excited to join the company. But working for a year in KOCH made me feel that i joined to a cult. Unfortunately, micro management was very high in my team. Could not take judgemental statements anymore from manager. Expectation was to create higher level innovations in short amount with very low resource.

Phone screen. Different than most interviews. Interviewer seemed very aggressive yet told me little about the process and how to prepare which seemed odd. Not good at communication. Heard it's an ok place to work though with good pay

Had initial shortlist of resume. Then I had 4 rounds of interview. 2 taken by EY, 1 by Koch and 1 HR round. All rounds had similar flow. Very generic discussion about my past experience. The entire process took around 3 weeks. But the HR team is very unresponsive. They neither pick nor take the call to update the interviewer of the final outcome.

I was contacted for a phone interview with HR. It was pretty standard, they described the role in more detail, asked about my background, and had a few behavioral questions.

It was pretty easy going. Some difficult questions. A lot with negative connotations. He encouraged me to keep asking questions so definitely be ready to ask a lot. It’s pretty competitive, so come prepared to but your best foot forward. Do research.

Was quite strange. They literally told me everything about the company and position and I only talked a little bit. Then, they ghosted me. Was very weird. I was expecting technical questions. I guess it was just a screening but still. There was hardly anything technical.

Screening by recruiter, interview by two person panel , then “on site” rotation with 4 sessions (that are each a hour) and are with a single individual at a time? Potential technical/personality etc. There might be a take home technical depending on prior exp

Straightforward with HR, interview took about 20 minutes and just asked questions relating to resume and job description as well as general behavioural questions. Applied online and was contacted through email

Applied online and got call from HR. Attended the first round and received positive feedback from the recruiter while concluding. He confirmed that he will put me through to the next round.. That's it no updates, no responses to calls. It's been a month and it looked like an urgent requirement. It's awful that the companies brag a lot about principles and values and what not on their sites and don't even have a basic ethic to share feedback to candidates. Absolute ghosting.. Stay away from this company.
