      Director Public Affairs Interview

      Aug 23, 2010
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      North Chicago, IL
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Abbott (North Chicago, IL) in Sep 2009

      Interview

      Be prepared for anything. Make sure you know something about the company and that you have at minimum looked at their website. Initially I had several phone interviews the the HR/Talent recruiter - who is actually contracted out. I had to prepare a written document and submit that prior to our phone interview. Then I had the initial phone interview (typical of most). The second phone interview consisted of Q & A. Then I had 1:1 interviews with staff in the department. It lasted about four hours. The last interview was with some senior department people. (It was down to three of us.)

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Describe a situation that you define as a crises. What was your role? What was the outcome?
