Perguntas de entrevista da empresa MetalTek

The interview process was long and ultimately felt like a poor use of time. It began with a brief phone screen with HR, followed by a 30 to 45 minute call with the hiring manager. I was then asked to complete 3 hours of online personality and aptitude testing. Next came a half-day onsite interview that included meetings with the VP, the manager I would report to, a panel of potential coworkers, and a final wrap-up with the manager. During the wrap-up, the manager mentioned they were comparing me against another finalist, and also made a comment about how they work hard there and typically put in 45 hours a week. That combination raised some concerns about the work culture. A week passed with no response, and only after I reached out did HR inform me that I did not have enough years of experience, and to re-apply in a few years. That is something they should have been able to determine before having me invest nearly a full day of my time. The process felt misleading and poorly managed, and I left feeling that my time was not respected.

Shortly after applying via LinkedIn, HR let me know they were interested in my candidacy and asked for my availability for an interview call. We had a date and time set up within a couple days. This video call was about an hour, with the HR manager, the position's supervisor, and his supervisor. They started with basic questions to make sure the logistics of the position aligned with what I was looking for, then some questions from them to learn about my skills and interests, and them providing more information about the potential projects and responsibilities I would take on in this position. After that, I had the chance to ask them some questions, and when I asked about what the rest of the hiring timeline looked like, they were very open to answering and truthful. After the video call round, they narrowed the candidates down to only a few, and within a few days notified me that they would like to see me for the second round of interviews, which would be on-site in person at their Waukesha headquarters. This round consisted of a tour of the facility and another quick talk with the same two supervisors from the call. After confirming my continued interest in the job after the tour, they narrowed down which projects would likely be a best fit for me and were open to answering any further questions from me. Finally, the supervisors took a brief moment to meet with HR, and the lastly before I was leaving, the HR manager let me know that they were extending an offer to me, and I was given approximately one week to accept or decline the offer, which had standard pay and no benefits, as is expected for an internship of this nature.
