General Mills interview questions

This was an on-campus interview. It had been built up to be an extensive marketing case interview, but was a more straight-forward behavioral interview instead. Before I even started, the interviewer said that "other people would be invited back for second rounds" -- it just seemed as if they had already decided who they were going to invite back. While I appreciate the value of networking and making connections before hand, it made me think that the organization was far more political than I had previously believed.

5 interviews, behavioral. Each interviewer had a different theme: Working with confrontational/aggressive teammates, a review of analytical projects you have held in the past, a reflection on your involvement in a previous company or campus role, how to act as a mentor, leadership roles. The day began with a panel discussion amongst the interviewees and employees from various financial units. From there we all took the Wonderlic test (go fast and skip hard questions, time is very limited), and then proceeded to doing 5 interviews at about 45-60min / each. Be prepared with many questions about the company- you will come in contact with over 10 people and all will ask you for your questions. Overall it is a very relaxed setting and the people are incredibly helpful and open in sharing their experiences.
