      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at General Motors (GM) in Dec 2014

      Interview

      Met through a campus recruiter. After months, and far past when my peers got interviews, I got a phone call to verify my availability. Waiting a few more weeks to hear back and they decided to fly me out. Picked me up, took my to the hotel and the next day, from the hotel to the interview. Waited in the lobby for a while until someone came and got me and informed me that they had forgotten about my presence there. The interview consisted of two candidates and two interviewers. Interviews lasted one hour with each interviewer and all questions were based on the STAR method.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at General Motors (GM) (Milford, MI) in Dec 2025

      Interview

      Single round interview with two senior engineers in the same role that as a lot about the experiences on your resume. For myself, they asked a lot about by experiences in test engineering through my internship as well as my involvement within Formula Student over my 4 years of university. Both about the technical aspect and the leadership aspect as my role within the team evolved. The technical aspect of the interview was very lax.

      Question 1

      They ask the standard, "get to know you" question like, "what are your hobbies, what got you into engineering, what excites you about this role, etc.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at General Motors (GM) (Warren, MI) in Oct 2020

      Interview

      Overall the interview was a great experience. I was first reached out by my engineering recruiter who does a brief background screening (simple tell me about your self and company based questions). Next was the Hire-Vue interview consist of 3 questions. For me these where technical specific job questions. About a week after, I received the next step to a digital video interview with 2 hiring managers. Who were totally amazing and made me feel very comfortable. The interview starts of with them explaining the available positions and then they ask to briefly get into your background and previous work experience. Then they will ask 3-4 STARL based questions. Make sure you prepare for situation based, conflict and relationship building questions. I really enjoyed the process at GM. The process took about 4+ weeks from start to finish receiving the offer letter. I accepted with no doubt because of a great team and opportunity.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      1) Explain something you would like to improve about yourself and what did you do about it? 2) Tell me about a time where it was hard to build a relationship with someone and how did you get around it? 3) Tell me about a time you made a mistake or would do something differently? 4) A company for years have been working and doing something as a routine. But recently you found out there is a huge fault in this method, how did you go about exposing the issue and fixing it? ( This one threw me off wasn’t expecting this)
