Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at FANUC.
Intern
The FANUC interview process starts with resume screening, looking for experience in CNC, robotics, automation, or electrical/mechanical engineering. Highlight any hands-on work with FANUC controllers, robot programming, or PLCs. Some jobs might have an aptitude or technical test covering logical reasoning, basic electronics/mechanics, and programming logic. Then, there are usually 1-2 technical interview rounds covering FANUC CNC systems (troubleshooting, parameters, tuning), robot programming (TP programming, path planning), PLC knowledge (ladder logic, interfacing), and problem-solving for machine/robot issues. Finally, there's an HR or Managerial round to check work ethic, flexibility, communication, and cultural fit.

Intern
It was a phone interview with two engineers that lasted about 30 minutes. They asked me to introduce myself and then asked questions about my resume experience.
- Have you looked into Karel?
Intern
It wasn't too difficult. The first part was a group discussion, then a technical interview, and finally an HR interview. They offer interns 10k and said that performance could lead to a job offer, but it's not guaranteed.
- Could you introduce yourself?
