Mechanical Engineer Interview Experience - Los Angeles, California
Process
The interviewer called and asked a few basic engineering questions about stress and strain.
These included questions about:
- Where the load bearing would be highest
- Basic cantilever principles
- Material properties of aluminum and steel
Next, they asked about my experiences, what I had done, and why I made certain engineering decisions.
Questions
Two springs support a bar, one made of steel and one made of aluminum.
If they are displaced the same amount, which spring supports more load and which has more stress?
