Hey yes just completed my interview cycle at Platinion. The case can vary but basically a scenario such as a grocery store chain that is having issues with supply chain, over ordering/under ordering, distribution disruption etc how would you propose being more accurate and predictive in ordering supplies, what solutions would you put in place, how would you manage communications between suppliers and grocery stores etc. and then further drill down on each of your answers. The answers are really at the technology type level not even naming specific products (although you could if you want) i.e. saying you need an ERP, an analytics tool, a POS and such.

Hope this helps

How do you guys tackle this in interview.

On June 21, I had an interview with two managers to become an HR Coordinator. Everything went smoothly, and I got good feedback, so I moved on to the management round of interviews. The recruiter initially stated that I would go through two rounds; however, between June 22-June 23, there were really five rounds, and I am still awaiting the scheduling of one more interview, even though it is now July. I'm becoming frustrated at this point. I’m still actively interviewing with other companies.
