How it works: Schneider Recruiting

Create a Candidate Profile/Submit your Resume
If you want to apply for any open position, you will need to create a profile and register in Schneider's eRecruiting system. By registering, you will be able to:

  • Create a private personal profile with your email address and password
  • Upload your resume and background information into the system
  • Apply to open positions quickly by using the information in your profile
  • Receive notifications when a job opening matches your area of career interest by creating a JobAgent (NOTE: You do not need to complete your profile to setup JobAgents, but you must complete the profile to apply
  • Email an open position to a friend, and
  • Keep your information current by updating your profile.

What happens to the resume?
Schneider National recruiters review all resumes according to your background and our positions’ requirements.

Phone interviews are scheduled.
The most qualified candidates for the position are scheduled for an interview with the recruiter. These interviews are most often conducted on the phone, however, some interviews may be conducted face to face.

Additional interviews and filling the position.
From there a candidate may have an additional phone conversation with the hiring manager or may come to a Schneider National facility for an interview. That day the candidates will usually have several interviews, each with a different member of the hiring team. The decision is reached by considering the input from all members of the hiring team. You will be contacted once a decision regarding the position has been made.

The Interview

For many of our roles, the face-to-face interview will take place at a Schneider facility, or when appropriate, a customer facility. During this time, candidates will usually have 3-5 interviews, each with a different member of the hiring team. The members of the Human Resource Talent Acquisition Team work with each candidate to provide them with specific interviewing details, based upon the role they are interviewing for and the location of the position.

Preparing
To prepare for an interview, please note that Schneider National follows a behaviorally grounded, competency-based interview style. The most effective use of your time while preparing for an interview at Schneider National will be to review specific examples of your experiences at school, previous employment and life experiences that best tell your story.

Also take the time to get to know Schneider National. Candidates do not have to be industry experts, but they should show they have made the effort to research Schneider. We recommend visiting www.schneider.com.

Ideas to help focus your planning:

  • Provide a specific example of a time when a co-worker or classmate criticized your work in front of others. How did you respond? Did that event shape the way you communicate with others?
  • Describe a system you use for keeping track of multiple projects. How do you track your progress? Is it effective? Why/why not?
  • Provide a specific example of a time when you sold your supervisor or professor on an idea or concept. How did you proceed? What was the result?
  • Describe a time when you put your needs aside to help a co-worker or classmate understand a task. How did you assist them? What was the result?
  • Describe two specific goals you set for yourself. Did you meet them? What steps did you take to ensure you met your goal? What did you learn from the experience?
  • Come prepared with questions.

During your interview
You may be asked to recall real-life examples of how you responded to different situations in various environments. Think of the interview as an opportunity to sell your story. Know your resume and accomplishments. As you respond to questions, use the elements of your accomplishments to craft your reply. More importantly, if you are not asked questions that will reveal your traits and experiences, take the initiative to work them into the conversation and sell your story. Your time will be limited, so use it wisely. 

Good luck — we know you will do great!
