Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at TE Connectivity.
Product Development Engineer
They initially mentioned it was a manager role, but on the interview day, it turned out to be for an engineer. The interview had 3 rounds and lasted over 3 hours. The first round covered my experience and some technical questions. The second round was a CAD test where I was given a 3D CAD file on one screen and asked to create a CAD model and drawing on another. The model was complex, and the time wasn't sufficient to measure dimensions and build the geometry. During this CAD test, another interviewer joined and asked many hypothetical questions unrelated to the position. After about an hour, the CAD interviewer returned, checked the model's completion, and questioned why I couldn't finish it, despite knowing that the other interviewer had been asking me questions for that hour. It was the worst unprofessional interview I've experienced.
- Can you explain the material composition of steel and plastics?

Software Engineer
3 Phasen: Erstmal ein Gespräch mit der Personalabteilung, dann eine grundlegende Prüfung des Lebenslaufs und die Möglichkeit, Fragen zu stellen. Danach ein Online-Interview mit dem Team, wo wir über die einzelnen Stationen im Lebenslauf sprechen. Zum Schluss ein Tag vor Ort, um das Unternehmen, die Produkte und die Kolleg:innen besser kennenzulernen.

Software Engineer
The interview process started with on-campus and then a university recruiting interview in Harrisburg, PA. Following that, there was a 1-hour phone interview with an employee in Menlo Park, CA. The next step was a 6-hour on-site interview in Menlo Park, where I spoke with six different people for an hour each. The process concluded with another 1-hour phone interview, and then an offer. The interviews were mostly behavioral and focused on past experiences, and generally easy and straightforward. There was some repetition in questions due to a lack of planning.
- Tell me about your past experience.
- Have you had any technical questions?
