I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at General Mills (Minneapolis, MN) in Nov 2014
Interview
I completed the process through University recruiting. Everything was well-organized and there was good communication between applicants and the recruiter. They explained the process thoroughly so that we knew the next steps. The recruiter made sure that travelling to the location was as simple as possible. They were "round robin" interviews, so each interviewer had a different style and demeanor, but they all made me feel comfortable.

Tell me about a time when you improved a process and it was successful.
The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at General Mills (Minneapolis, MN) in Oct 2025
Interview
- 2 on 1 for the first interview
1 of them was asking questions and 1 of them was taking notes. Felt pretty intense, they never got back to me and said I would hear back after a week. I then reached out and they responded immediately saying I did not get the job.
Applied online and then interviewed over a zoom call. Straightforward and easy. Two rounds. Some online personality questions as well. Overall a good experience. Different interview lets each round both current employees.
