Production Senior Manager Interview
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at General Dynamics Information Technology (Orlando, FL) in Jun 2022
Interview
GDIT wasted two hours of my time during the strangest round about interview I’ve ever been through. A red flag popped up when I entered the lobby of the building and there wasn’t a soul in sight. I was able to flag someone through the window of a secured door. The tester had no idea where the interview panel was so I decided to wait in the lobby. About 15 minutes past the scheduled time I was about to leave when one of the team members entered. The team member brought meback and we had a casual conversation about the role and my background. I was given a tour then passed off to another individual for about 30 minutes. After that I was passed off to a 3rd individual for another 30 or so minutes and finally I was passed off to an executive or director who was visiting from another location. All together the conversations were positive however, I was still taken back by the fact the team was 1, late 2 not all together but each individual with what seemed like their own agenda for what they were looking for.
- Very general basic interview questions…nothing really pertaining to the specific role from what I could gather.

ARE YOU SCHEDULED FOR A PHONE OR VIDEO INTERVIEW?
A: Great question! The short answer is do what’s most comfortable for you as long as it’s not in any way making it difficult for the interviewer to hear, or interfering with your ability to capture good notes when appropriate. Speaking of making it difficult for the interviewer to hear you, please do NOT use a speaker phone. If you need to be hands-free, I suggest using your earbuds or headset. Personally, I almost never hold the phone to my ear anymore, but if you’re comfortable doing that then please do so.
– Andrea Hall, Military & Veterans
A: Please test your technology and network beforehand, the day before if possible, and participate in the interview from the same location you tested and prepared from. If your interview requires a camera and microphone, or Skype, or the internet, please ensure it is all working properly. Do a dry run or two in advance with a friend to ensure everything is working. If your phone cuts off or you somehow get disconnected from the interviewer, please don’t panic, just simply call them back.
– Tina Barnhart, Senior Recruiting Manager
A: I get this question a lot, especially since most face-to-face interviews are conducted seated, why would a phone interview be different? Well, my “knee-jerk” reaction is do what you are most comfortable with. Some people are more comfortable if they are moving while having an important conversation. If that is the case, just make sure the interviewer can hear you at all times and don’t multitask. If you will be teleconferencing, I would recommend sitting up straight and ensuring your face is easily seen by the interviewer. In addition, find a quiet location with the fewest amount of distractions. If you do not have your own home office space, choose a space that is clean and professional looking. Don’t overcomplicate it though. This can be staged in your dining room, bedroom, or even an oversized closet space.
– Jeff Snyder, Senior Sourcing Manager
A: Social media is filled with stories and videos of our new ‘coworkers’ interrupting our meetings and stealing our lunches. In general, I think most interviewers will be understanding if something unexpected happens, but if there are constant disruptions, noise, etc. interfering with your ability to focus, or their ability to hear you, you might not be putting your best foot forward. Here is how I would handle it. Try your best to identify a date and time in which you can sit down and focus in a quiet space. If you are at home let everyone know in advance that you will be using this space for an interview, the time of the interview, and that the space is off-limits during that time. My last piece of advice would be to please avoid public places for interviews.
– Meschelle Wall, Applicant Tracking Service Specialist
A: We’ve all gotten so excited for a new opportunity that we’ve let our nervousness overtake us. The big thing is not to dwell on that. When that happened to me, there was a two-fold reaction. First was my reaction in real time during the interview. I took a couple deep breaths, and explained that my excitement and passion for the job created some anxiety that threw me off. Believe it or not, they thanked me for being honest and transparent, extended the interview by 20 minutes so we could circle back, and ultimately I was able to redeem myself in that interview. Secondly, I reflected on the lessons learned, i.e. what went wrong, accepted it, researched and developed some best practices, and factored that into all my future interview preparations. If you have an interview coming up you will get the best results if you prepare in advance.
– Nathan Cushing, Senior Project Manager – Senior Systems Engineer
A: Isn’t it great when you’ve interviewed for a position and feel really excited afterward? Here’s what I advise. Plan to send a well-timed follow up. It’s best practice to send a follow-up email within 24 hours of an interview. Let the interviewer/s know you appreciated their time and that you are available if they have any additional questions. Also be sure to thank the person who coordinated the interview if it was someone other than the interviewer/s. Point being, thank everyone for the actions they played in your interview.
