I applied through college or university. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Dow (Lake Jackson, TX)
Interview
The interview process started with an on-campus screening type of interview, asking mostly behavioral questions.
About 4 weeks later I was notified to set up an on-site interview in Lake Jackson, TX. Flight arrangements were made to and from Houston, TX and Lake Jackson is about an hour drive south of the city.
The first night was a dinner with three employees, all senior technical.
The interview process starts the next morning with a research seminar, complete with Q&A session, then followed by 4 more interviews throughout the rest of the day.

Question 1
They were all pretty common questions; where do you see yourself in five years? what else would you like to know about the company? what is your biggest research accomplishment?
