Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Westinghouse.
Software Engineer Intern
It was a pretty chill interview, kind of technical but not too much. I felt like it was mostly to check if you'd be a good fit. They asked questions mainly about teamwork, industry experience, and general work ethic.
- What do you consider to be the primary distinction between academic work and industrial work?
Software Engineer
A recruiter from Westinghouse gave me a call. We talked about my background in C/C++, my education, and my work history as detailed on my resume. I also got to ask some questions about the role, which involves programming for real systems, possibly using C++.
- Could you describe your experience with Unix?
Senior Software Engineer
It was kind of like a panel interview, but with several hiring managers. My past experience really helped me out, and it was a good time to interview because there was a huge hiring spree happening.
- I don't recall the specific questions asked, but I felt well-prepared and didn't struggle with any of them.
