I was contacted by HR to schedule a 30-min phone interview with the hiring manager.
The hiring manager was very aggressive in asking questions and I felt a little uncomfortable. At the end of the interview, she told me that she was looking for someone with 5-7 years experience. The funny thing is the job description states totally different expectation "looking for 2-5 years experience". Overall, I don't feel good about the interview and how aggressive the manager is.

Interview
I was asked to apply for a job by a recruiter within General Mills. I was called for a phone interview that lasted about 30 minutes with the hiring manager, and afterwards was flown to Minneapolis for a day of interviews. Prior to going, I had to take two personality tests online. Once there, I took an IQ exam, and a marketing case study before the interviews began. I had five, 45 minute, one on one interviews and a one on one lunch that was not considered part of the interview process.
