I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Hitachi Vantara in Oct 2010
Interview
I applied for the job through my university. I heard back about a week later and went to the Career Center for an Interview. The initial interview is with 2 or 3 Managers or Senior Managers. It is mainly behavioral, but they did ask me some case interview-esque questions (e.g., market estimate). It was a pleasant experience and all my interviewers were alums of my university. I was advanced to the final round a week later. This last round consisted of 4 interviews with VP's. They asked questions about my resume, behavioral questions and again, some case-esque questions. All of them were very pleasant. After the interviews we went out to lunch, and I think this was the interesting part: you have 12 or so Type A's all vying for a job. I ended up getting an offer about a week and a half later. Great experience interviewing. Accepted the offer.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Calculate the number of light posts in an average size city.
Pretty basic process.
They just did a couple of questions along 3 interviews.
One with a talent recruiter.
Another more technical.
A last one that was behavioral.
The process took around 1 week.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Hitachi Vantara (Chicago, IL) in Nov 2023
Interview
The case study was challenging but fair. Lots of good questions but straightforward. Good rapport with everyone in the room which was nice to see compared to others. I would recommend.
A Phone screening by the recruiter followed by three to five video interviews with prospective bosses and teammates. The level of seniority in interviewers progressed as the interviews went on. Finally, I had a call with the recruiter telling me the results. The team enjoyed, but the company recently went on a hiring freeze.
