General Motors Interviews Employee Reviews
What did you like most about the interview process?
Multiple interviews coupled with a thorough background check so that any person evaluating the "best Fitness" of a candidate has a solid basis to make the hiring decision.

The interviewer questions and listening skills
Knowledgeable interviewers, after initial phone and chat
Very laid back and very though
Interviewing with multiple people in separate sessions made the interview personal. I have done interviews infront of a panel which does not feel personal.
It was too long ago to remember but back then I'd say being a 3rd generation auto worker may have had an advantage.
Meeting all the big people before i get on the floor
Review from Product Dept
8th level had no skills or training in interview process
Review from Sales Dept
I do not think i like any of it. It is just a necessary process
The interveiwer was down to earth and very knoledgeable
Directly interviewing with your manager(s)
Anyone can get hired there if you have a pulse and are breathing apparently.
Face to face, virtual, and one on one
Review from Design Dept
I enjoyed being given the room to answer questions with stories
It was very well planned
It felt pretty standard. No complaints. If anything it made me look back at my prior work experieneces and wonder if I was mistreated at previous jobs.
Keep me updated , which was nice
Review from Operations Dept
We learn things about general motors.
I felt like they wanted to really get to know me and the unique qualities I bring to the table
The interview was done remotely
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Get away from outside venders screening candidates.
To meet the people you want to hire
It was a joke now that I look back on it. They told me everything I wanted to hear. I fell for it hook line and sinker, I was young and had a new family to take care of. I don't think they are capable of improving they need to be truthful.
Review from Engineering Dept
Clarity about the career or position
Managers have no idea if candidates are qualified. They're just guessing and estimating based off generic factors.
Review from IT Dept
Give more difficult technical interview questions
Review from IT Dept
Not use an outside company to find referrals.
