Behavioral Presentation

I had two interviews. The first was in the summer and I didn't get a response. The second was in the fall. Both interviews were pretty relaxed and everyone was nice. The only downside was the waiting time before the interview, which felt a bit too long even though I arrived early.

I applied for a role to help with their CUBEsat project, specifically using CAd and Solidworks. When I got there, I checked in and was told my interviewer was running late. My interviewer, Peter, eventually came out, greeted me, and led me to a conference room. On the way, he showed me the workspace with the computer setups.

Had a Zoom call, and was interviewed by 3 guys who had less than 6 years of experience combined. They didn't ask anything relevant to the actual work. I was later rejected for not being a "cultural fit".
