Sollicitatiegesprek
I applied through my university's career center and was offered the first interview. The recruiter was a great person and did not make me feel uncomfortable or weird. I was asked a lot of behavioral questions and went by quick. No technical questions for the first interview. I was told that I might be extended a second interview if I passed a personality quiz online.

Tell me a time where you had to make a quick and major decision.
This review is for the FIRST interview was for the Ops Manager Training program - Transportation. The process was pretty standard for the industry, with a intelligence test consisting of several parts, the only one you could really study for is the analogies portion which is very similar to the SAT version. There's also a "profile" you must meet, which is established by the personality exam that consists of a large battery of questions, many of which are asked in different ways multiple times. This test is designed to check your consistency of responses - with the company looking for hard working, team oriented, self starting employees with integrity.
The interview was also just a typical interview. No real wrenches thrown in, just keep in mind that SAFETY is not just a process, it is the JOB. If you have examples of exercising leadership, safety decisions, etc, those are helpful.
I did receive the invitation to go to the second interview. I will post about my experiences in Omaha when I get back.
