A group of potential new hires and internal promotions, called a 'POD', took a tour of a facility for 45 minutes then the potential new hires were given a math flow question that the internal promotion employees had answered before. We then did 45 minute interviews with 4 higher level managers and HR reps from facilities around the area with one 45 minute lunch break.

Interview
I applied online and was invited to an interview in Indianapolis the next week. I received my offer a week after that. It was a pretty easy interview. The math flow question isn't very hard and the interview questions deal more with your ability to be a leader and manage people and follow company policies and values. If you haven't had any experience being a leader of an organization or even a group project then you wont be that successful.

The first will ask for you to explain how you solved the problem with some follow up questions and the second is focused on personality.
