I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at General Mills (Golden Valley, MN) in Jun 2016
Interview
My first contact was a phone interview with the hiring manager. A couple days later I was invited for an in person interview with a few finance managers and the HR manager. Prior to the in person interview there were online assessment tests that were required to be completed. The entire process was fantastic, the people I met with were kind and thoughtful.
