AspenTech Junior Engineer interviews, decoded.

I was first emailed by someone for a phone interview with a senior manager. It lasted about 45 minutes and we talked about general OOP stuff and my resume. Then, about two days later, I got an email to set up a Skype interview with four people: two group managers, one entry level engineer, and HR. This interview wasn't technical at all, which was pretty surprising.

The two interviewers were super chill and the vibe was pretty relaxed. I felt totally comfortable and like I aced it. They didn't hit me with any hard technical stuff, it was mostly about my behavior. They did bring up a couple of classes from my transcript, but nothing that really caught me off guard.

I sent in my application through the university job board. About a week later, I had a phone interview where they asked some standard questions, like why I wanted the job. After that, I was invited to their Nashua office for an interview that lasted 4 hours. It was pretty long and tiring, but the actual interview questions weren't too hard. Mostly they asked behavioral questions.
