I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Boeing in Feb 2009
Interview
Very simple, head hunter gave them my resume and I had an interview at an off site location then I got passed to HR for negotiation which went great. The interviewer was late but they paid for lunch.
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Boeing (Los Angeles, CA) in Mar 2008
Interview
Was interesting and I received a good tour of the facilities. The panel interview was laid back and they asked typical interview questions. I had lunch with two of the engineers and they were nice, but probing. Thus I was interviewing pretty much all day and just had enough time to catch my flight.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Where did you encounter a work related conflict and how was it resolved?
The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Boeing (Houston, TX) in Apr 2008
Interview
Applied to job on Boeing Website. Interview was fairly easy. A few technical questions, but more questions on personality, fit, etc. They don't give programming tests (apparently that is banned by the company) so the questions they can ask are really limited from a technical perspective. The job I was applying for was C++ related and all they asked me was if I knew what polymorphism was and what the difference between an abstract class and a non abstract class is. Be prepared to answer why you want to work for Boeing.
