Question 1
What if your team member asks you something, that may change your priority list?
I interviewed at Schneider Electric (Mumbai) in Mar 2022
Interview
Very good and well organized. Not very technical. Questions asked from resume and you take the course of the interview. The interviewers are not very intimidating during the process and they try to make it easy for you.
I applied online. I interviewed at Schneider Electric (Bangalore Rural)
Interview
The process began with a friendly phone call from the HR department, where they introduced themselves and provided a brief overview of the interview schedule. They explained that the first round would focus on my educational background, work experience, and a general understanding of procurement processes. I was also informed that a technical assessment would be part of the interview to evaluate my problem-solving skills. The first interview, conducted by the HR representative, was indeed relaxed and conversational. They asked about my academic achievements, previous work experiences, and specific projects related to procurement. The questions were not overly technical, and I appreciated the opportunity to share my experiences in a comfortable setting. It felt more like a discussion than a traditional interview, and this helped ease any initial nervousness. Following the initial interview, I was scheduled for a technical assessment. I was given a procurement-related case study to analyze and present my approach. The case study was challenging but not overwhelming. It allowed me to showcase my understanding of procurement strategies and problem-solving abilities. The interviewer was supportive and provided guidance when needed, creating a positive and collaborative atmosphere.
