Question 1 of 40

Eaton Corporation has business partners and interests all over the world. Are you able to travel internationally?

For conglomerate corporations with global interests, international travel is a necessity. Thoroughly research the positions, the company, and their expectations. If traveling for work or relocating isn't a clear expectation, ask for clarification. Just don't ask questions you should already know the answer to. If traveling for work isn't in line with your goals or lifestyle, get a clearer picture of what they are looking for before declaring that. This question is ultimately a test of your flexibility and how far you'll go to perform. Express that you are open to further discussion and would like to learn more.
