Process
I received a phone call for an HR interview several weeks after the college career fair.
This part took about twenty minutes and was mostly about talking about past projects or work experience.
Then the recruiter scheduled a technical review. The interviewer will ask basic programming questions (choose two languages out of MATLAB, Java, C/C++, etc.) and math questions (calculus, differential equations, linear algebra).
The technical interview takes about 45 minutes and covers basics, but you might want to brush up on these topics. There were no trick questions.

People really believe in the mission statement: "to accelerate the progress of science and engineering." People have a lot of respect for one another, for our customers, and for math, science, and engineering. 90% of the workers are focused on the team and are wonderful coworkers who are conscientious and give generously of their time to help ramp up new workers. The company is very stable.Cons: Not everyone is eager to share knowledge. There are enough who are and are great mentors so that you can grow--but still, it seems that some of the more curmudgeonly employees could use a reminder of the core values.
