Application

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at General Motors (GM) (Toledo, OH) in Oct 2012

Interview

Submitted Resume online. I was then contacted a few days later for an onsite interview. The interview was a star process or lominger process interview. The interview was with the manager for the position and an associate. The whole process took a little over 2 hours without a plant tour which does occur sometimes.
