Question 1
How would you react under certain issues that happened during transportation like a shipment damaged during the transport?
Rushed and uninterested phone screener, did not scream motivating to work for. In person interview scheduled but last minute rescheduled. Not sure how that will go just yet. Phone screener did not give great indication of a good company.
