The interview process was rigorous and thorough, as there are only a select number of hires for this program. However, it was no longer than a normal engineering interview process for PhD/SM candidates.

1. Initial Phone Screen with Program Manager/Recruiter
2. Initial Phone Screen with a potential Project Lead (30mins+, discussion of technical work and synchronicity with potential project ideas/work)
3. On-Site interview with multiple project leads (1:1 interactions & group/panel)

Be able to succinctly explain your 1-2 technical accomplishments in detail, as if you were giving a mini dissertation defense.

Be able to talk about those projects with an understanding of:

• The risks taken
• Technical caveats/implications
• Product application and/or the technical contribution to either industry of your field of study

Also, explain how these prepare you to quickly and effectively contribute on a high level.
