      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at American Water (Cherry Hill, NJ) in Mar 2009

      Interview

      1st interview was with the HR VP which lasted about 30 minutes. Questions were standard interview questions from a list. (i.e. Your strengths/ weaknesses, Why American Water?, Difficult situations, etc.) 2nd interview was right after the first and was with the department manager and a supervisor. Questions were more informal, and some were directed at skills. This interview was mostly conversational.
