Arla Foods interview questions

This was a very length process which started in January (2021), including cognitive and behavioral testing, an intensive video interview round, followed by more psychometric testing, and finally the assessment centre. Throughout the process I was very happy with the level of communication and information being given, but I feel we were let down after the assessment centre. We were promised on the day that we would not be informed by email about whether we had been selected, (one of the Arla team members actually laughed about how inappropriate that would be), but yet I was informed by email that I was rejected. In fairness, the logic was that they didn't want to randomly call us to give us the news in case they caught us at an inconvenient time, so they wanted to let us know and then book a time to call and discuss, but I still felt this could have been handled better. Most disappointing of all was the feedback call. After all the work I did as an applicant, the feedback call was brief and not hugely informative, and worst of all it was done by someone who openly said they were new at Arla and so didn't know much about the program, and who was very clearly reading off a script. It's slightly insulting that we weren't deemed worthy of a call from someone from the actual F15 team, despite all the time and effort spent on our behalf for Arla. Overall it gave a really bad impression, and I've come away feeling like Arla is a great place if you're an employee, but you're not valued as a potential employee, and would make me hesitant later in life to work with them in other positions. Such a small thing that they could have handled much better and would make a big difference.

Interview on Hirevue; Around 8 questions, one of which required a written answer. In addition, you have to complete around 6 games that test your cognitive, reasoning and logical skills. The questions need to be answered first before you progress to the game section. Overall, the process went smoothly. Company does a great job of keeping you updated on the application process.
