I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Expeditors (Seattle, WA) in May 2010
Interview
My experience started with a company-wide presentation geared for new graduates at their branch in Kent. With a rep from each of their divisions present; each rep gave a run down of their department and what an internship would look like and the prospect of being hired on after completing it.
After the presentations (1.5 hours later) open interviews were held and you were assigned with a random Exp employee for a short 15 minute interview were they evaluate your skills and intelligence level.
Then I was contacted by phone by one of the department heads and conducted another short interview this time over the phone - I was offered an interview in person. I was interviewed by two associates and asked the usual type interview questions and evaluated for industry knowledge. They wanted to know about my past job experiences and how I work under pressure. I did well, and they made me an offer for an internship.

I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Expeditors (Seattle, WA) in Jul 2022
Interview
Very brief, asked some technical questions. Didn't really care about the person - just need to fill the role asap. It seemed like there was high turnover and the interview was to qualify you to get you in the office and start work.

Question 1
Asked about experience with handling airport terminals and trucking dispatch.
the interview had nothing to do with the workload, and it seemed like they were unprepared for my interview. There were long breaks between interviewers almost as if they had no one lined up and were pulling people out of the office randomly to talk to me.
