Someone from HR called to schedule a phone interview. The first interview was pretty straightforward. They asked me a bunch of undergraduate structures questions:
After that, we mostly talked about the company and the structures group within the company.
HR called back a few days later to schedule a second phone interview, this time with finite element methods in addition to structures.

This included talking about boundary conditions in a rocket model, what types of elements would be used, and how you would go about checking the accuracy of someone else's model.
None. All the questions are fairly straightforward. They take what you're good at and see if you can apply this topic to rockets.
