I was contacted the same day the position closed and set up an interview for the following week.

I was given the option of a telephone interview or an in-person interview; I selected the in-person option.

I was contacted at work at my current employer. The manager was understanding that it may be a sensitive topic to discuss while at work and provided a number for me to contact him after work.

I was aware that Boeing has a specific interview style, but was unaware of the style, so I researched it (STAR behavioral interview). I found potential questions which may be asked and prepared potential answers in advance. I was allowed the opportunity to use my notes during the interview, if needed. I brought work samples as well.

I was interviewed by the hiring manager and the lead for the position.

I was asked the following types of questions:

• Tell me what Diversity means to you.
• Describe your experience/education relevant to this position.
• Describe a situation in which you incorporated other parties (more than 1) in a decision-making process.
• Name a time when you worked on a major project and had to overcome obstacles. How did you do it?

There was another question asked, but I don't recall the specifics.

Below are questions I answered but was not directly asked, although I felt it prudent to share:

• What would your manager say about you?
• What are your strengths/weaknesses?
• Describe a situation in which you showed initiative and took the lead.
• Adaptability/Flexibility issues.
• Working with co-workers and overcoming challenges, how did I go about it?

I discussed my knowledge and experience with blueprint reading/interpretation, Bill of Material Structure and application information, retrofits, and change management.

See previous entry above. All questions asked were anticipated because I had done thorough research in advance.
