Two interviews one on the phone and one in person where they asked me about my current experience and told me about the company and role. Interviews were with a few different members of the team
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Mondelēz International (Calgary, AB) in Aug 2014
Interview
I had an initial interview with a 3rd party company that was responsible for recruiting candidates. Very brief overview of resume and skill set. I then proceeded to the second and third interview where there was a series of situational/behavioral questions. All requiring me to answer with the Situation, Reaction, Action, and what I learned. Very straight forward- no curve balls.

I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Mondelēz International (Calgary, AB) in Oct 2012
Interview
Mondelelez is the brand that Kraft Foods created when they separated their grocery and snack lines, so it is a HUGE international company. First there was a lengthy phone interview that lasted about 45 minutes, involving straightforward behavioral questions and inquiry into your life and career. Next I was asked to a real interview with the Territory Manager. I thought it went great except near the end when he said more behavioral questions would be asked. I only got through the first question but had to use a past example from my school career as I had very little sales experience. My answer, although I thought it was sufficient, seemed to turn the manager off and the interview came to a sudden halt. I have no idea what I could have said to destroy my chances so abruptly, I definitely didn't say anything offensive or inappropriate for the position. He then asked if I had questions, which I tried to redeem my interest and knowledge, but obviously to no avail. They called about a week and a half later to regret to inform me blah blah.

Question 1
Tell me about a time that you had to sell something to someone who was opposed to the product, idea, or service; what you did to make the sale or change their mind; what were the results; and how have you applied what you learned it that situation?
