Two series of interviews. One was on campus after the career fair, and the next was at the corporate site in Omaha.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Union Pacific (Chicago, IL) in Aug 2021
Interview
The whole process involved 3 major steps: the aptitude test, the first round interview, and the second round interview. The aptitude test wasn't difficult, it mostly tested logic and people skills. The first interview was very conversational and I was able to ask lots of questions. The second round interview was a bit more panel styled, so I was answering questions from 3 different people. They were mostly about my experiences in leadership and in past working experiences.
