Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Schaeffler.
System Engineer
A week after applying, I got a Skype interview invite. The interview was average. The team lead didn't know what they wanted and asked for 5+ years of experience for an entry-level position. They also made some inappropriate remarks about my application, which was totally unprofessional and uncalled for. I hope they change their job descriptions or have realistic expectations. Totally ridiculous! Stop wasting candidates' time.
- Some questions regarding my resume
- Other irrelevant and unnecessary questions
System Engineer
I talked with the manager for about an hour. They asked me technical stuff and about my personality. We discussed my past projects, how I solve problems, and how I can explain engineering things to people who aren't technical. It felt pretty organized but also like a normal chat.
- How would you explain an engineering concept to someone without a technical background?
- I explained that I would simplify the concept using relatable analogies, avoid unnecessary jargon, and connect the idea to real-life examples so the listener can understand the core function without technical depth.
Systems Engineer
They started with an online test, followed by two interview rounds. The interviews focused on my resume and electronics knowledge. The first round was purely technical, and the second round was a mix of HR and technical questions. They also asked some progress-related questions.
- Can you write programs?
- Can you explain Electronic gates?
