Behavioral Presentation

The interview was a "round robin" style that lasted for about an hour. For about 55 minutes, I was asked questions by four people: two supervisors, one team leader, and one department director.

I applied for a job posting I found on the SAS website in October/November and got a call about it in April of the next year. After an initial call from the recruiter asking if I was free for a formal phone interview, I was called back 1-2 hours later for the interview with the hiring manager. Later that same day, the recruiter called back and said they wanted me to come in. I lived out of town and they offered to fly me in and pay expenses, but since I was close enough, I chose to drive and claim mileage and expenses instead. It was a 4 stage interview with different people, from technicians to the director. 4 hours after it started, I was done, and got a job offer within the hour.

It was pretty interesting, I'm prior military so that's what we focused on, they were looking for my skills in dealing with QA. I was flown to Austin TX and stayed in a nice hotel with a rental car the day before my interview, all expenses paid. Overall everyone was extremely polite and friendly, they were looking for good experienced fresh personnel. It was a Technician's job and I was being hired by engineers that worked in the department I was interviewing for.

  • Can you describe the equipment you've used that necessitated QA procedures?
