Process
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks.
Overall good experience; mostly asked mechanical questions, beams, welding, mass conservation. Everyone seemed neutral. Really like talking about their job, very passionate about work they do. Pretty refreshing to hear this much enjoyment with the work they do. Still in the process.
