Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Curtiss-Wright.
Project Engineer
I applied and a recruiter called me about 3 weeks later. Then I had a video interview with the hiring manager and director. I didn't get selected but they also have a third round on-site. I was ghosted after the second round. My workday profile still said I was in the interview phase but it had been over 2 weeks since my interview with the managers. I reached out to the recruiter since she handled all communications. No response, so I checked my profile again and it said I was not selected. It was an easy process but unprofessional if you don't get picked.

Engineer
So I had this phone interview, right? It was with three people - two managers and one HR person. The questions were kinda tough but fair, and I think I did pretty well. The managers seemed to like me and said they'd move me to an in-person interview. So, that part went well. But then, like, a week later, still no word. I tried calling the HR person to see what's up with the in-person thing, but never got a call back. It's a bit frustrating 'cause I have no clue what happened. I even left a voicemail explaining it all, but still nothing. Feels like they just changed their minds and couldn't even be bothered to tell me. Not the most professional way to handle it, honestly.
- Standard engineering interview questions were asked, nothing unusual.
Engineer
It was pretty simple. They asked me about my background and what I was interested in, what I'd be doing day-to-day, and I met the people I'd be working with. Saw the place too. It kicked off with a quick call, then a video chat, and finally a few hours at their office.
