Question 1
Q: Give an example of a time you had to solve a problem that was not in an area of strength for you.
I interviewed at Caterpillar (Charlotte, NC) in Sept 2024
Interview
I was told after 15 minutes that the interview was planned for only 30 minutes. Seems like the HM judges candidates without letting them introduce themselves. It was 30 minutes of red flags that this management team is impossible to work with. So strange they have openings!
