I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Expeditors (Brisbane, CA) in Sep 2024
Interview
"EVERYONE KNOWS OUR SYSTEMS ARE OLD!" announced the interviewer within minutes of sitting down face-to-face with her. She told me that the company was Fortune 200, and almost nothing else. Could've fooled me. The recruiter kinda snickered when I said my boss had gone on paternity leave recently, almost like that was an unwelcome idea at Expeditors. When the second interviewer did not show up, she suggested I "come back next week."
My experience with interviewing at Expeditors was like Grandfather's Basement, old and disorganized, but there's Costco snacks.
phone screening first and step forward to in person interview.
Phone screening doesn't include special questions.
It was easy to respond. Started with casual things and narrow downed to the specific things like salary, position.

Interview
Step 1 email the CV and step 2 waiting for supervisor for around 1, if you pass around 1 you will get the chance have interview with manager, and then they will send you contract and talk about salary
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Expeditors in Oct 2024
Interview
Initial HR screening call went great. After the screening call, I had a video interview with the hiring manager who decided to turn my interview into a spur of the moment skills/technical test, which I obviously wasn't prepared for.
Interview lasted well over an hour. I was told I'd hear back by end of week, which didn't happen. After following up the next week, I received a very simple response a few days later saying they're going a different direction.
While I understand interviews can be conducted different ways, I wasn't prepared to be grilled on technical questions for 25+ minutes in an introduction interview. Also didn't appreciate being ghosted past the response deadline. Other than that, the experience went fine.
