I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at McMaster-Carr in Sep 2025
Interview
The interview process was quite straightforward and not very conversational. The interviewer mainly went through my resume and asked a few basic behavioral questions, but there wasn’t much opportunity for deeper discussion or follow-up conversation.
Applied on their website and recieved reply back relatively quickly to set up a 30 minute zoom interview. Very nice person interviewing but asked me questions that fall under the recruitment track more therefore was caught a bit off guard. Was rejected a couple days later via email.
onsite had 3 rounds, it was easy behavioral based questions. Mostly focused on my resume and the experience I had. The office was great, they give you a tour at the start of the day and break out into interviews. Lunch was at their cafeteria.
