Behavioral Technical Presentation

I interviewed for the Process Engineer role in CertainTeed's Technical Development Program. The interview process had three parts. The first was a phone interview with the recruiter, where I discussed my background and learned about the development program. The second was a more technical phone interview with an engineer, focusing on my background and experiences. The final part was an on-site interview, which included two interviews with the HR manager and the technical manager I would report to, followed by a plant tour. The entire process took about 3 weeks and felt like casual conversations rather than formal interviews. It was a good experience overall.
