I had a phone screening/interview first, then a second interview that could have been virtual or in person. I went to their Monroeville office where I was briefed, interviewed with a pair of unit managers, talked with a current engineer, and had lunch with my host manager over the course of 3-4 hours. It was pleasant, timely, and well organized.

It was a two step process. Step 1 was a phone interview where we talked about the position and they matched my resume to the job requirements. I got to explain my specific skills and how they fit the role. Step 2 was an in-person interview. This lasted for three hours and had multiple parts covering benefits, the job description, and my skill sets. The most interesting part was a panel interview with three engineers. They asked six questions to see how my experience fits their needs.

The interview was long and had multiple parts. It started with HR, then some questions, followed by a panel interview, and then more questions with a different person. I had to ask a lot of questions to fill the time. The people were very nice.
