Mechanical Engineer Interview Experience - Los Angeles, California
Process
Email received to schedule a phone interview, followed up with a video interview.
The interviewer was not the hiring manager and seemed disconnected from job details.
No personal connection to the interviewee was made; the approach was very stale. Additionally, the initial video software was not functional, and I had to figure out how to get it to work.
