Question 1
Talk about a time when you've had to make an environment more inclusive and accommodate diversity
I met with a hiring manager they asked me to explain my resume, tell me about myself, where do I see yourself in 5 years. Basic behavioral questions, it was a good experience
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Medtronic in Dec 2010
Interview
I applied online and heard back from an administrative person a couple weeks later to set up a phone interview, which seems a little faster than most online systems. During the interview there were 3 senior engineers on the other end, one of which would be my manager if I was accepted. They took turns firing away a variety of questions but they were good about quickly moving on if I was having trouble and not fixating on the few things that I got wrong. The tone of their commentary was helpful not aggressive or accusatory as I have experienced elsewhere. Toward the end when it became clear that I was doing well, the conversation moved toward them pitching the project I would be working on and why I would enjoy the job and the city. What's cool is that a week later a young engineer called me to tell me more about the loose culture and why I would enjoy working there, as well as practical info like finding a place to live, etc. Overall a quick and enjoyable experience.
