I applied through university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Grainger (Campus) in Oct 2017
Interview
Applied through an on-campus recruiter. Received a call back within a few days for an in person 1 hour behavioral interview that was on campus. Broken into 2 30 minute segments. Second round would've been in Lake Forest, IL.
I had three different interviews. They are STAR interviews so have to tell about a time when. Know how the Grainger company values aligns, and panel interview. People were nice.
2 behavioral based interviews with a variety of questions getting at motivational fit and problem solving approach. Pick 5 to 6 impactful moments in your schooling or work and spin each story to the question. Final interview round had a case study.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you disagreed with your supervisor and how did you resolve that disagreement?
I had three 45 minute interviews. The interviewers asked behavioral questions and then asked more questions based on my answers so it became more conversational overall. The case study was not too hard either.
