Mechanical Engineer Interview Experience - United Kingdom
Process
The recruiter was nice, but kept backtracking and changing details about the intent and job description based on my responses. They also asked that I "make sure to be enthusiastic about how lucky I would be to work there" during the next interview.
The interviewer was late to the call and to my responses. This is not a good sign about how they handle things there.
