I applied online. I interviewed at General Motors (GM)
Interview
The initial phone screening and teams meeting were positive and encouraging.
For the in person one I was told to arrive early but the interview started 15 minutes late and I was left alone waiting. Very little attempt to build rapport and they went almost straight into technical and behavioral questions. Feedback was delivered bluntly. Generally felt unprofessional
