A month after applying I received an unscheduled phone screening where I was asked generic questions about my interest and education. I then received an email which scheduled me for an interview. This interview was with three FirstEnergy employees where I was asked STAR format questions and then some generic ones. An offer was given to me 3 weeks later.

The interview was a phone interview with a supervisor and another engineer. They started off by asking questions on my resume, mostly focused on experience, had me elaborate on tasks I completed. Then they asked 6-7 behavioral/situational questions and had me talk about experiences where I had faced situations. Overall the first two parts took 30 minutes. They finished off the interview with my questions, definitely learned a lot more from my questions instead of the job listing or their interview.

I spoke with HR and two other co-op students at a co-op fair, submitted my application online, and was asked for an interview. The first interview took about 15 minutes and was with two engineers, the second took about 45 minutes and was with three engineers including a supervisor.
