Plans were changed frequently and I was left confused on how the next part of the process would go multiple times. I had a total of 3 interviews which were all conducted by a different person than who I thought I was going to be speaking to
I applied online. I interviewed at Woodward (Santa Clarita, CA) in Apr 2025
Interview
Two rounds, both virtual. First was with an HR rep and just basic personality stuff, second was with the hiring manager from the site and more focused on projects. No hard technical questions but a lot of opportunities to show off previous experience so come prepared with good anecdotes.
The interview was quick and easy. The recruiter was very nice and they gave a good idea of the job responsibilities. I interviewed same day at a conference and got an email back within two weeks after that.
