The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Keyence (Chicago, IL) in Mar 2011
Interview
Applied through the website and was contacted to take a skills test. The test was pretty straight forward with simple physics and engineering type questions. Later I was contacted for a phone interview. It consisted of basic questions regarding my experience and I learned a lot more about the position.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What Is one bad thing your previous employer would say about you?
Brief phone call, then a zoom interview with hiring manager, then an in person interview with included sales pitch role-play. They give plenty of info about the role-play in advance.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Keyence in Feb 2026
Interview
There were three interviews, initial Talent Acquisition, phone screen (to confirm location preferences and answer questions), then final sales role-play/behavioral interview. There was also a prep session before the final interview where they talk more about the company and you have time to ask questions on the role-play.
Actually it was around 4-5 rounds , they generally assess your communication and creativity. So , we can expect less technical questions . Gd round was quite easy and topics will be very simple
