Arrive at very early time to make sure to show prompness. Waited 1 hour for someone to hand me paperwork to fill out. About 10 pages worth of previous work history and qualifications. Also needed information to complete background check and drug test. Signed waivers and handed back to interviewer.

Interviewed Oct 2011 (took a day)
I found the position on my school's career website and applied through that. I then was accepted for an on-campus interview. This took about a half hour. It was mostly behavioral and past experience questions, and it ended up covering most of the things on my resume. Some of the questions: Why should I hire you? What kind of time management skills do you use when you are assigned more work? What are examples of times you have worked in a team, and what lessons did you learn from this experience? Are you willing to relocate? What do you know about Raytheon? What type of position are you interested in?

Interviewed May 2009 in Andover, MA (took a day)
They found my resume in their database and invited me to a hiring event. I had three people at the table interviewing me, and they just asked me questions like what would make me a valuable asset to the company. There were no technical questions. My impression afterwards was that they were looking for people with the right kind of personality to fit in their team, rather than technical expertise.
