It was a two part interview back to back. The first was with the plant manager looking to learn more about your social skills. The second was with the manufacturing engineering manager to talk about slightly technical topics.

The first interview was a chill phone call where we talked about my resume. It felt pretty low-pressure. They said I should expect to hear back in about a week. I was also expected to show that I knew about the company and what they actually do. Honestly, don't stress too much about this initial conversation!

Confirmed questions1 question

It's pretty straightforward, but there are a bunch of interviews you gotta go through. The whole thing can take a while, like weeks or even months. You'll probably get asked about how you work with others, sort out problems, show leadership, and talk about your past projects.
