I was first contacted via LinkedIn.
Then, I had a phone interview where they asked about what I do.
Next, they flew me over to Fremont and I interviewed with the manager, the senior Controls Engineer, the foreman, and another senior Controls Engineer.
Describe how a PID loop works. What parameter do you adjust when the process variable is unable to reach the setpoint?
How would you go about troubleshooting a PLC problem?
Asked me about safety PLCs and what I know about them.

Overall, great people who are very motivated.
