Mechanical Engineering Co-Op Interview Experience
Process
I applied online.
The interview was conducted over the phone. It had only behavioral questions, as well as logistical questions regarding commuting to their workplace, immigration status, and other details. They told me they wanted me for the second round of interviews, but they never followed up on that.
