I applied through college or university. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at Cargill in Oct 2019
Interview
Was extended an offer after two rounds of interviews. The first round was an hour long, with a single interviewer, the second round was with 3 separate interviewers, lasting 30-45 minutes each. The questions were typical STAR type questions, and I was asked to give specific examples in reference to specific engineering work I had done. Both interviews followed this format. All interviews were conducted over Skype
