Human Factors Design Engineer Interview Experience - Wichita, Kansas
Process
I applied online on the company website and received an e-mail the next day requesting that I fill in and submit an Engineering questionnaire.
The questionnaire mainly consisted of basic questions, such as:
- Why do you want to join?
- Do you have a background working with a storage system?
- How many years do you have experience with each technical skill?
I submitted the completed form and informed them that the position seemed unsuitable for me, as I am more heavily involved in design.
I received a call the next day asking for the best time to schedule a phone interview. During the interview, I spoke with a hiring manager and a design engineer. I was asked a few rather basic questions. I could tell, however, that I wasn't going to make it, as the role was quite outside my area of expertise.
Questions
What is your strength and weakness in the design area?
What is the best thing you would bring to the company?

There are lots of politics playing towards engineers in Wichita. Most of the mid- to senior-level managers do not have enough knowledge to cooperate with engineering teams. No promotions for engineers, but there are jokers who made it through without good knowledge and a technical background.
