I was contacted by a staffing agency, then I was submitted for the position and four days later I interviewed by phone by the manager at GM for the (OnStar) IT department. The interviewer was 10 minutes late for the phone call to where the manager stated that she is driving home and will but me on speaker phone while she is driving. I immediately mentioned that this was dangerous and if she would like to reschedule the interview so she can concentrate on driving ( especially how hectic Austin traffic can be). She declined and the interview took place. It was your standard interview questions on managing projects through the entire software life-cycle, nothing that was changeling or relevant enough to evaluate anyone's abilities as a manager. She first started with the general background on how OnStar has been absorbed by GM entirely but there is still a lot of company integration issues that still need to be addressed such as a working and functional PMO that is relevant to the unique environment and challenges that have arose since being incorporated into GM's IT Operations. When I had an opportunity to ask questions I asked questions that inquired into the operations and politics which distinctly drive the company goals and project as well ascertain a better sense on the state of affairs within GM pertaining to IT governance and Project management. Before I could finish I was told by the manager that she had to cut off the interview abruptly because the traffic was getting worse and she had all the information that she needed. I mentioned to the staffing agency that I was concerned that she could have not gauge my proficiency accurately due to the circumstances of her attention was not entirely focus on the interview but on driving during rush hour traffic in Austin. Two days later I was told they made two selections for the position, after I was told by the manager that she had a full week of interviews to do before she would set up face to face interviews. So I believe that they had people in mind but to met federal law they must interview individuals outside of the company. My advice to the manager is to give people your full and undivided attention wither it be the interviewees or the people on the road to which you put there lives at risk by not paying attention

Very structured interview process using situation type questions. Then the response had to adhere to the same structure pattern: situation, what happened what results action was taken and why. Lastly what improvement steps were taken to avoid thus happening action

Process wasn't too bad. Interviews were quick after submission. Screening call with recruiter and then 2 phone interviews with a project manager. Had 2 face to face interviews and then one final interview
