Interviewed Sep 2011 in Springville, UT (took 3 weeks)
Phone interview- questions included what my specific goals are? What experience I have for the position?
Panel interview consisted of production and quality managers. Questions were similar to the phone interview only more in depth to the job description. A basic question was asked, "How do I solve a problem". My answer was pretty straight forward, "depends on the problem". There were a lot of vague questions asked.
In the meantime they strung along all candidates without giving them any information for the position. My assumption was they made an offer to 1 candidate and then strung everyone else along while they completed the background check. After 4 weeks of hearing nothing (I had 3 interviews, and during this time when I called they kept stating I was the number 1 candidate for the position). They never did call me and tell me the job had been filled. I had a friend call and ask the HR manager if the position was closed that had been posted for 3 months. I would rate this HR practice and company a 0. Be warned about not wasting your time. Honesty doesn’t seem to be the best policy for this company and they use unethical and deceitful tactics.
At the end of the day i heard an internal candidate picked up the position, makes you wonder why they went through the effort of posting this external.

Interviewed Jan 2011 in Vernon, CA (took a day)
Met with the director of Engineering and H.R. rep. H.R. asked your generic questions. Director asked about Strengths and Materials. However, it depends what you are interviewing for, I went in prepared for fluids questions, not realizing they wanted me for materials engineering. The facility itself and the employees seemed cold.

Interviewed Jan 2009 in Chesapeake, VA (took 2 days)
Typical interview. You talk to a bunch of people and then are evaluated on a group presentation as well. You stay in the best hotel, I mean they treat you really nice. However dont be fooled by the way they treat you at the interview. Its a lure tactic. The HR lady wont even say hello to you after to accept the job. She is your best freind until you accept though.

Interviewed Dec 2010 (took 2 days)
Two 1-on-1 interviews among other evaluation procedure; one from HR, the other from an engineer. Both basically only inquired about working in groups and leadership.They assume anybody who gets invited past the first round of 1-on-1 campus interviews is techincally qualified to do the engineering jobs. The two days were basically evaluating your work in groups, leadership qualities, and if you'll fit in with the group.
Seems like a good company interested mostly in selling their products, servicing them, and manufacturing efficiently. One of the higher-ups at the recruitment event said there wasn't much "organic growth" in the industry, so the impression I got was that most new technology and innovation comes from acquiring other companies rather than internally.

Interviewed Jun 2008 in Kalamazoo, MI (took 2 weeks)
First contact by HR manager then brought in for interview with members of the specific group I was interviewing for. Round robin questions with 4 managers within the division. Went over resume and gave technical questions as to certian problems I may face on a normal work day. Report writing is key.

Interviewed Oct 2009 in Irving, TX (took 2 weeks)
After a preliminary phone interview with the hiring manager, an in person interview transpired with an HR rep, Director of Financial IT, Hiring manager, and a peer of the hiring manaer. The HR rep asked the typical interview questions and very briefly reviewed benefits. The Director stated his interview would be the easiest, and asked personality questions. He stated the 3 things most important to him. The hiring manager, who definitedly expressed interest during the phone interview, asked questions pertaining to how I would accomplish the job, and seemed more interested in questions I had for him. The other IT manager was quite cordial. He defined his role under the Director, and asked if I knew some specifics about the type projects that his group did. Overall, the interview was very thorough, lasted 2 hours, and concluded quickly, with barely a chance to tell the hiring manager to expect a thank you, with the HR personnel scheduling the interview showing myself and another interviewee to the lobby where visitor badges were returned.
