I applied through other source. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at General Motors (GM) (Warren, MI) in May 2016
Interview
Applied via internal referral and forwarded resume to my associate. HR called two hours later for a quick phone screen about my history and salary requirements. Another HR manager called a few days later to set another interview in person. They only interview on fridays. Met with two buyers and had them both interview me at the same time due to another candidate not showing, normally they split the interview into two one hour meetings. Used behavioral based questions to interview, very informal and conversational.
I personally find STAR method interviews tough to prepare for because you never know what questions you will be asked and what scenarios you personally have experienced which may be applicable.

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at General Motors (GM) (Warren, MI) in Jan 2022
Interview
Initial interview was a phone screen with a recruiter. From there I was passed along to another phone screen. After the second screen, things progressed well and I was able to receive an in-person interview. However, this was during peak Covid, so it was all online via zoom. I interviewed with 3 different people via zoom, back to back to back. Similar questions, STAR (situation, task, action result) type responses were sought. I should mention, the hiring manager was calling me prior to each step and essentially walking me through the next phase, which was helpful.
My last step was a final phone screen with the hiring manager, who I had built enough of a relationship up with by then.
