Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me a time that you were challenged and how did you overcome it?
I interviewed at Smithfield Foods (Kansas City, MO)

Very laid back and comfortable, more worried about hiring good people and fitting the role to them. We met outside of the office and it felt like a conversation more than an interview
