Intern at Lockheed Martin

No Offer – Interviewed in Dallas, TX – Reviewed May 23, 2013 New

Interview Details – Position listing on campus recruiting site was for a general position with subsequent specialization. After applying, I interviewed on campus and was told that I was not interviewing for any positions, only that I could potentially be contacted if there was an opening in the specialization I specified. Interviewer asked nothing but behavioral questions and wrote down all of my answers. Was told I could expect to hear back within a month or two, but never heard back, even after numerous follow-ups.

Systems Engineer at Lockheed Martin

No Offer – Interviewed in Orlando, FL Apr 2012 – Reviewed May 17, 2013 New

Interview Details – They held a information session at my university, and called a few people for interviews on campus the next week. I asked if there was going to be one interview, or if they were going to make this into a three part thing. I asked this because they seemed to really like me in the interview. After that interview was done, i got a call a couple weeks later for another interview, which is the opposite of what they said would happen. The first interview was just basic things like do you like to work in a group or by yourself, and how you felt about systems engineering. Also which would be the field you would be most interested in, from the system engineers position. The second interview basically went over my resume again and asked for any extra curricular activities and/or side projects i've done that can match with electrical engineering. I was told if i pass the second interview, then a third interview would be done.

Interview Question – The most difficult question for me was do you do extra things aside from school or worked on any project. I'll be honest, and say I focus a lot on school and I dont have time to play with things that aren't related to my school work. It felt cheap trying to take things I did before school and try to pretend they were engineering related.   Answer Question

College Student Tech Intern at Lockheed Martin

Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Grand Prairie, TX – Reviewed May 8, 2013

Interview Details – I applied online to a few student tech intern positions. I got an email fairly late (end of April) to set up a phone interview. They said it was a position that they created fairly late so the whole process went pretty quickly. The phone interview was the only interview. The interview consisted of standard behavioral questions and a few technical questions. The technical questions were not difficult and mostly about the various programming languages and software I am familiar with. Everyone from the recruiter to the manager I interviewed with were extremely nice.

Interview Question – Tell me about a time you went beyond what was required of you for a project in school?   Answer Question

Negotiation Details – I didn't negotiate because I considered the pay to be generous (21/hr).
