I applied online. I interviewed at Southern California Edison (Pomona, CA)
Interview
The interview process consisted of a panel interview with four team members. The conversation lasted about an hour and included mainly behavioral questions. Each interviewer asked questions about different aspects of my background, including academic projects, teamwork experiences, and how I approach safety problems. The interview was conversational but structured, with follow up questions based on my responses.
