First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at SOFWERX.
Graphic Designer
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.
- Do you have a portfolio you can show?
Mechanical Engineer
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.
- What are your strategies for managing heat generated by a Cubesat?
- Can you describe your experience designing projects from the ground up?
- What motivated you to pursue your major?
Machine Learning Intern
They looked over your past projects to make sure you knew what you were talking about and that your resume was legit. After that, it was just behavioral questions about why you wanted this internship.
- Can you tell me about the project ____ from your application?
- Tell me about the project ____ that you described in your application.
Systems Administrator
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".
- Can you describe your past work experiences?
