I'd applied for a ton of jobs on the Boeing website, and this was the job I got called in for. Coming from the IT world, I fully expected the interviews to last all day and to be completely worn out by the end of the day. However, I was pleased to discover that, as I'd read on Glassdoor, Boeing uses panel interviews and the STAR method of questioning. This meant I only had to interview for an hour with a panel of four people from the group I was interviewing with, plus an HR rep.

Each person asked a question – be prepared for one about diversity – and gave me a short period of time to describe a Situation, Task, my Actions, and Results that would answer their questions. Despite the structured nature of the interview, there is plenty of opportunity for a candidate to show enthusiasm for the job. The best piece of advice is to read the other reviews here, and you'll get some idea of the type of questions you might be asked. Then, go prepare your answers. Being prepared is the key. It's a good experience.

I only had to wait about a week to get the offer. It was a bit low, but I was able to negotiate up a little. So far, it's been a good place to work compared to my nasty former employer.
