Apparently the HR recruiters at Saint Gobain are very experienced as I was very surprised about the level of detail that was asked about my previous experience. I was asked very specific questions about my accounting knowledge, excel knowledge, etc.. I had previously assumed the HR recruiter would ask more "general" questions only and that the hiring manager would ask the specifics of my experience if I advanced to the next step in the process.
What was your job role in the previous company?
They gave me a one page financial report which only had approximately 5 columns and 7 rows of numbers. They asked me to review the report and pretend I was giving a report to the Board regarding the report. The column and row descriptions were not very clear.
In depth about accounts and the field
No technical questions. Questions were more behavioural.
My interviews were mostly behavioral and more focused on getting to know my personality to see if I was a good fit at DI. The most difficult question I received was "What is your favorite movie."
What does your availability look like for a video introduction call?
I was asked to explain how my background helps to prepare me for this role. I was quizzed on accounting concepts.
What have you done in your previous organisation
Can you tell me about your experience and the transactions that you've handled as a general accountant?
