I received an email for an interview with dates and times from the person I would be replacing, and then it was recalled a few hours later. Then I received an email from the recruiter to discuss the role. That went fairly well. I was told someone would reach out about an interview. I told them they did and recalled the email. The recruiter said they would contact that person and let me know. I waited 3 days and reached back out with no response. I would have hoped that a company this large would be more organized and transparent in its recruiting efforts.

Technical Presentation

It was a three-round process. The final round involved a 2.5-hour on-site practical task, which required 4 hours of travel. I was told I'd get feedback in a week, but I got rejected after a month with no feedback at all. They didn't tell me about the travel reimbursement policy upfront, and I only found out about it after asking for reimbursement for £35. Apparently, Boeing's policy is no reimbursement unless it's pre-agreed. The assessment could have been done remotely, but making it mandatory on-site was a big burden and cost, with no thought to accessibility. Really disappointing for such a big company.

Behavioral Technical

This was a structured interview at a School Career Fair. All candidates on that day were asked the same four questions. There were four to five interviewers, including an HR team member and people from different departments. It felt a little intimidating with all the typing, but they were great listeners and a great team to work with.

Confirmed questions4 questions

Behavioral Technical

It started with a quick phone screen with HR to check basics. A few days later, I was invited to a Microsoft Teams panel interview with three engineering managers. The interview was strictly structured around behavioral questions, and it is essential to answer using the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result). The interviewers were professional and focused on understanding my past experiences regarding conflict resolution, data analysis, and technical challenges. Be prepared to use the STAR method for every answer. They are very specific about wanting to know the 'Action' you took and the 'Result' achieved. Review your past projects focusing on times you dealt with data analysis and conflicts.

Confirmed questions5 questions
  • Can you walk us through your resume and highlight the experiences that are most relevant to this specific role?
  • What is motivating you to look for a new opportunity and why are you interested in Boeing?
  • Can you describe a time when you had to compromise to reach an agreement or move a project forward?
