I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Hilti North America (Houston, TX) in Aug 2017
Interview
I had been applying to Hilti for over a year and was already in touch with one of the recruiters. First, the recruiter does a quick phone screen to see if you're a good fit. Then, I interviewed with the director of the group. If the manager/director likes you, then you will be invited on a field ride to see a day in the life. If all goes well and your potential co-workers give positive feedback then they extend you the offer.
