I applied through university. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at 3M (Madison, WI) in Oct 2013
Interview
Questions were mostly behavior with 1-2 questions on accounting. Interview was with two individual, each for a half hour. Interviewers were easy going and easy to talk to. They allowed a lot of time for questions at the end.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at 3M (Bengaluru) in July 2025
Interview
Two rounds of interviews one with the hiring manager and one with some senior folk from the team, followed by HR discussion about salaries. And this was because I had referral.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
One question was about salary forecasting and budgeting.
Virtual interview with direct manager that last about 45 minutes. Very casual interview with basic questions. No tricky questions and very personal interview style. I received an email after the interview to inform me of next steps.
The interview processes are phone screen, then my profile will be endorse to the hiring manager and will be interviewed by the hiring manager then higher ups for final interview. Then will conduct an investigation then job offer .
