The interview included questions about my schooling and any programs I knew, like SolidWorks. They also asked if I had experience in a manufacturing setting and if I'd ever used tools.

Behavioral

I applied online and then got an email to set up a time to chat with a recruiter. The recruiter was supposed to call me, but they didn't. After waiting, I emailed them twice. They finally emailed back saying they had called and left a voicemail, which they didn't. Then they did call, but said they were too busy to talk and were very rude. It didn't make a good impression of the company.

Behavioral Technical

I was contacted a few days after I posted my resume on their website. I had a phone interview and then three one-on-one interviews. The interview process was very well organized and included a plant tour. I recommend to just focus on the positional requirements and relate those requirements to your professional backround during the interview.
