Mechanical Design Engineer Interview Experience - Hawthorne, California
Process
I completed an initial phone screen and a second call with a lead engineer on the team.
The initial phone screen consisted of questions about my knowledge of the program as well as basic technical questions regarding cantilevered beams.
The second interview with the lead engineer focused on discussing my projects in depth and anything relevant to the position.
Questions
If you had a beam with one end fixed to the wall and the other end free, and you applied a downward force to the free end of the beam, where would the area of highest stress be?
