Manufacturing Interview Questions

"Manufacturing covers a broad spectrum of jobs, each of which differs in its requirements. The questions you are asked in a manufacturing interview will depend on the tasks you are expected to perform. As most manufacturing jobs revolve around creating components and assembling components into products, you can expect to be interviewed about your ability to perform repetitive assembly line-style tasks with precision and accuracy. You may also be asked about any physical disabilities that would prevent you from lifting heavy objects or performing other typical factory floor tasks."

(she didn't call or discuss the basics) Had the interveiw, here is the problem: Job was and still is posted for their Irvine location, I asked during the interview as the hiring manager was in San Jose and he said that is wrong, job is for the Palo Alto office, and he asked IS THAT A PROBLEM FOR YOU? He mostly asked questions about Welding and Mechanical joints, and at some point said: What was your role? Where yo ua weld engineer?? My role and tasks and accomplishments are in my resume; read it first. At the end I asked him what skills exactly he is looking for for this role; weld/joint or adhesive applications; he said I kinda like to have all in my team!!! My question: What is your timing to fill this role? Answer: ASAP. I asked don't you have a project timing or gate to meet and provide your team's deliverables, he answer, as I said ASAP!
