Anonymous Interview Candidate
I interviewed at McCormick & Company
Very efficient, met with 4 managers that included the district manager, and the hiring manager, and two hr professionals. The position is new to the company and was very vague on what the job would entail, other than additional responsibilities would be assigned by plant manager.
- Why do you want to leave my job

Anonymous Employee

The interview was professional and covered all the important aspects: personal,professional, experience and skills. Arina Mandrychenko runs this interview in a very professional way and without stress. It was more like a friendly chat, so that was a plus.
- What I've done to improve things on previous job?

I applied online to job post. Headquarters HR made the arrangements for in person interview at job site. Job site had no idea I was interviewing and had to wait for an hour for an interviewer. Ended up doing a phone interview in their lobby.
- Do you have any experience being in charge of a group?

Anonymous Interview Candidate in Łódź, Lódz
I applied online. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at McCormick & Company (Łódź, Lódz) in Nov 2022
The beginning of the process was not that bad - preliminary interview via mobile and after positive outcome final interview via Teams. Here the good things end. It is weird that you have to get feedback by reaching the company as they are not getting back to potential employees in promised time. I understand that there could be better candidates, but returning back to people who spend their time for the recruitment processes is very important. Especially that the company promised that they are coming back, no matter the final result. The feedback which I received did not say anything. It was general stuff instead of more detailed information in order to get know the fields which needs to be developed. In total from my point of view it was a waste of time, I was told that they hired somebody else, but at the same time this job offer is available on LinkedIn.
- - Experience history; - What skills are desirable for an order management specialist; - Which of companies activities do you treat as the red flags?

Anonymous Interview Candidate in Monteux
I applied online. I interviewed at McCormick & Company (Monteux) in Oct 2022
Receivers made me feel comfortable, asked me to present my background and skills for the role they asked me about my last two experiences, they asked me if I knew the company
- describe who is Mr DELLENBACH

Anonymous Interview Candidate
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at McCormick & Company in Oct 2022
I was interviewed twice on the phone and then 3 1-hour zoom interviews. In total about 5 hours being interviewed during 4 weeks. Questions were repetitive and in hypothetical situations "what would you do if...". After the 5th interview I never heard back from them. The HR person stopped replying my emails. It's just basic human decency to send someone a one line email "you were not selected". I guess there is not a lot of decency at McCormick
- What would you do to deal with a conflict with a fellow employee?

Anonymous Interview Candidate in Haddenham, England
I applied online. I interviewed at McCormick & Company (Haddenham, England) in Sep 2022
I would say the interviewers were easy-going and friendly and the whole process was chill. But there was no response after the interview, even I sent the thank you letter to them. I just got ghoasted after the interview.
- Tell me about yourself? Go through your resume Any improvement of our marketing strategy?

Anonymous Employee
I interviewed at McCormick & Company
Slow. HR takes a very long time to set up interviews and communicate offers. The actual interview was friendly but professional with 2 or 3 current employees/managers. Questions are fairly standard for the industry.
- What was a time you had a disagreement with a coworker and how did you handle it?

Anonymous Employee
I interviewed at McCormick & Company
There were many rounds of interviews with multiple parties across a couple of months. It was a long structured process. I met many different team members during this process that had different perspectives around the work and expected contributions.
