Mechanical Engineering Internship Interview Experience
Process
The first round was a phone interview. They asked questions about heat transfer and some basic physics questions. No calculations were required; it was more of a way to assess your thinking process.
For the second round, they asked you to design a machine that could fold a quarter in half.
Questions
Designing the machine that could fold a quarter in half was hard. They say not to spend more than a few hours on it, and it was difficult to accomplish a lot in a small amount of time.
