I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Volvo Group in Nov 2014
Interview
Applied online, received a prerecorded on-line interview. The interview lasted for 30 min, all based on the position requirements and your technical skills and experiences. The time limitation on each question is hard to handle. No interaction with interviewer seem a little strange for me, just like a TOEFL test. Be sure to prepare well with the related projects and experiences. A lot of explanations on the related experiences.
I applied the internship program online. The hiring manager contacted me back about one month later and asked if i was still interested in the position. The interview was scheduled the next day. The interview process was easy though. I met with the hiring manager and the managing director of the department I applied for. They asked me to talk about myself and raised questions based on my resume. I got offer a few days later.
Applied through the online application and received a phone call two weeks later. Had a phone interview and was asked to come in to their office for 1 on 1 interview.
