Perguntas de entrevista da empresa P & H Mining

Typical

P&H was an odd interview. As an experienced candidate (10+ years) , I was surprised that they wanted me to take a test (2 hours) in a software I had used for many years. The immediate supervisor was straight forward, but the group manager was not. I would relate the experience to the graduating college student where the interviewer really tries to put the screws to you. At this level in my career, this was a little comical as I regularly have to present to senior executive management at a much higher pressure level than this. At one point, I was challenged with a question in which I have experience and responded with an answer. The manager exclaimed it was not correct and my answer would not help at all. I believed him to be mistaken and with due diligence, I researched the answer (engineeringtips.com actually had the same question) and also contacted a licensed PE colleague with over 20 years of experience in this specific topic. It turns out that this manager was mistaken and the PE contact responded that it was scary how far off base the manager was. The only thing which concerned me was how passionate he was about his answer being correct. This and his general attitude turned me off to the organization- although I will say everyone else quite accommodating and friendly. I'm simply not the personality type that is interested in this 'hard sell' style of interviewing. I think a tactic was employed that is typically used on those with little to no experience which does not translate well to those with more experience. I have not heard back at this point positively or negatively, and honestly, do not desire to hear from them.
