Applied online to multiple positions.

Heard back from a recruiter within two days.

Had an initial phone screen with the recruiter, with basic personality type questions.

Then, the next day, the recruiter scheduled me for a technical phone interview with an engineering manager.

First, he asked me to describe a project I had worked on and then asked increasingly technical questions based on that project. The questions were clearly trying to judge whether I had a good fundamental mechanical understanding.

A few days after the first call, the recruiter scheduled a second technical phone call.

This call was similar but slightly more challenging and had some fundamental engineering questions and some manufacturing process questions.

I was dropped from the candidate pool after the second technical phone interview.
