Mechanical Engineer Interview Experience - Costa Mesa, California
Process
I applied through a recruiter.
A third-party company will probably call you first and make it seem like you're the best candidate they have ever seen. Then you will get a phone call interview with a low-level engineer in the company who has mediocre social skills. After that, you will move on to a manager who has below-average social skills and also a very busy schedule, so they might miss your interview a couple of times.
Questions
They asked how you are fit for the role and maybe technical questions.
