Keyence Sales Engineer interview questions

Just a fresh grad giving my 2cents, want to keep things transparent and honest. Keyence can make use of LinkedIn to have a larger pool of candidates. The whole procedure is broken down into 3 segments: 1. Career day [think you have to email them about it, don't think it was an open invitational event, hence it is q low profile]- it started off with a senior manager introducing the company (what they do, etc) followed by introduction + bonding games among participants to warm them up, ended off with debate between 2 teams with 2 different topics. After that, lunch was provided by keyence, where you get to talk to a few managers and other participants. This was the morning section, not sure if you are being graded for the debate. After lunch, there is a 5 questions math test to complete, it was quite easy, if you're an engineering student, shouldn't have any issue. After the math test, participants were divided into groups of 2. 1 group will be introduced on the products that keyence is selling by the sales and technical engineers, another group will be interviewing with a sales manager. All the sales and technical engineers are very friendly, you can ask them any queries if you have, they are more than willing to share. As for the Interview with sales manager, it is quite chill with questions like: Introduce yourself, walking through your resume, asking why sales, why sales, which traits that you have that you think you have that is impt in sales. 2. Receive an email a few days later to do a personality test and pattern test, need roughly an hour to finish. 3. Receive notification about second interview, roughly about a week later. The second interview was with the managing director, he's very nice and a warm person. The whole interview procedure was like a conversation rather than an interview. It was more or less like him trying to know more about your background and him explaining the company's background, etc. Will ask you what's your favourite part about career day or the company, from then he will further elaborate the part that interests you the most. Ended off with a mini role playing session at the end. (based off your interest- i.e you like to gym, so he can role play as a member who wants to gym and you need to sell him a gym membership- smth like that). The whole process felt like a conversation rather than an interview. Really feel very comfortable the whole time, which is very rare. I've been to interviews where the interviewers were quite intimidating.

Poca serietà. Ho passato tutti gli step (recruitment day, colloquio con manager giapponese, colloquio con manager italiani e colloquio finale con AD). All'ultimo colloquio, l'AD mi ha assicurato che quello con lui sarebbe stato l'ultimo step selettivo e sarei stata ricontattata in caso lo avessi superato per un incontro con il manager dell'ufficio in cui sarei stata inserita. Ho svolto anche questo incontro, sembrava tutto andato a buon fine, finché dopo quasi 3 settimane ho ricevuto la mail hr dicendo che non avevo tutte le caratteristiche della figura ricercata. Devo dire grande delusione per come è stata gestita la comunicazione. In generale è comunque un azienda che offre tanto perché fa lavorare tanto: durante il colloquio con uno dei manager mi è stato detto senza mezze misure che l'orario è 8.30-17.30 ma poi ci si ferma molto di più. Mi hanno inoltre assicurato un rimborso per il viaggio a Milano ma non è mai arrivato.
