Interviewed May 2010 in Pomona, CA (took 2 months)
It was 1 interview, about an hour long. 4 or 5 Engineering managers present. Dress professionally, most interviewers are in suit/tie. Study HR type questions for interview. Know an example of when you worked on a team, when you had a conflict and how you resolved it, why do you want to work at Edison.

Interviewed Feb 2011 in Irwindale, CA (took 3 weeks)
I was contacted by one of SCE's contracting agencies. I had to go online to do several microsoft software skills test ie; word, excel, access and project. I passed all 4, then they called to schedule a phone interview with the screening manager. I passed this as well and they scheduled an in person interview with the same manager. After I successfully made it through this interview, they scheduled a panel interview. There were (3) managers and they asked different sets of questions, behavioral, technical and personal.

Interviewed Jun 2011 in Rosemead, CA (took a day)
The hiring process was smooth and quick. The interview process was very normal. Basically, you are interviewed by either 1 or more managers and they take turns asking questions. They also record what they hear from you. They also challenge what you know in a technical interview. They will add on to what you answer as well to get more in depth with the question.

Interviewed Dec 2011 in Santa Ana, CA (took 4 months)
I applied online to a job in September 2011. My resume went through a resume screening process. After passing the screening process I was selected to test. I went to the training center and tested in a group with other people going for the same job. The two tests I took were a word and excel test and both required a passing grade of "basic." The testing was very stressful, my heart was pounding. If I didn’t pass I would immediately be disqualified from the job interviews. Lucky for me, I passed. I received notification by email about a week later that I passed both test at advanced level. My resume and test scores were put through another screening process. I was then selected to interview. My interview was scheduled 1 week after I received the call. My interview was scheduled for 1 hour but took only 45 minutes. They asked me a series of questions. I presented them with a portfolio w/ my resume, cover letter, test scores, and examples of my work. It helped me a lot. When answering questions I would refer to my portfolio to show examples. I highly suggest creating a portfolio for Southern California Edison interviews. I interviewed on a Friday and received the phone call that I got the job on a Tuesday. It's now January 2012, and I am supposed to start next week. It was a 4 month process from beginning to end.

Interviewed Aug 2011 in Rosemead, CA (took 4 weeks)
It was a temp job for 2 years. It took 3 weeks after the temp agency submitted my application to get an interview. There was only 1 interview with 2 managers. They asked alot of situational questions to test your analytical thought process. What experiences you have had in the past that applied to the job. The managers were very friendly.
