Manufacturing Engineer Interview Experience
Process
Referred by internal employee, followed by a short phone interview. The hiring manager called back within a week to set up an on-site interview. The on-site interview was one-on-one with the hiring manager. I was asked a lot of standard interview questions, such as: tell me about your work history and tell me about a time you had a difficult situation with a coworker and how you handled it.
Questions
Tell me about a time you failed and what did you learn?

The manager recognized hard work, though not financially.Cons: No regard for work-life balance. Worked 24+ hours straight on multiple occasions due to pressure from upper management, who were then incensed that I wanted to leave when the emergency had been dealt with.
