Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Bell.
Mechanical Engineering Intern
The interview process is mostly behavioral, focusing on your communication skills, but there are also some technical questions about how you've used your resume experience. It's in two stages: a screening interview, likely handled by Textron, and a second, more technical interview with Bell.
- What are your reasons for wanting to join Bell?
- Can you discuss your resume and relevant experiences?
- How have you applied the experiences listed on your resume?
Mechanical Engineer Intern
The interview vibe was pretty relaxed, felt like a get-to-know-you session. I chatted with an HR person who explained what a typical day looks like and connected me with some engineers I'd be working with. The interview itself was pretty in-depth, really made me think hard and give well-considered responses. They threw some unexpected curveballs, but I was given enough time to answer everything properly. Afterward, I got to ask them questions. I feel like I could have asked her more than she asked me, but she had an answer for everything or could point me in the right direction.
- Tell me about yourself, but more about what you do in your personal time.
- Can you name a time where you made a bad decision and had to come back and reevaluate your thought process?
- What is the toughest job you have had to do in previous internships?
Mechanical Engineer
The interview process was pretty standard. They asked a few questions about me, my previous work experience, and my salary expectations. Nothing about their process seemed particularly unique. If you've prepped for interviews before, you can pretty much use the same prep for them. That's assuming the recruiter isn't deliberately trying to mislead you.
- Can you share an experience where you dealt with a difficult situation and describe what you learned from it?
