Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Exelon Generation.
Software Engineer Intern
The interview process was pretty straightforward. All the questions were about my past experiences and what I planned to do in the role if I got it. I'd suggest looking over your resume and using the STAR method for your answers.
- Can you recall a time when your opinion was challenged?
- Describe an instance where you faced pushback on your perspective.
- Tell me about a situation where someone questioned your stance.
Software Engineer
Recruiter reached out via Linkedin. Started with a phone screen, then a week later an interview with the Engineering manager and HRG (who was also the hiring manager). The engg manager explained the job and responsibilities first. Then, they asked 6 behavioral questions, emphasizing the STAR format. It's important to research the specific station you'll be working at (capacity, start date, MWs, etc.), as well as the company's vision and core values.
- Can you share an instance where you demonstrated problem-solving skills in your role?
- Describe a situation where your manager acted unethically. What was your response?
- Tell me about a time you successfully reduced costs for your company.
Software Engineer
I got a phone interview after an employee referred me. It was with a senior engineering manager and a hiring manager. The questions were STAR format questions. It ended with a chat about general experiences and interests etc. I believe there was a background check and an offer as well.
- Tell me about a time you had to overcome a difficulty.
