I was flown in for an Onsite interview after 2 interviews, The company informed me that they would be paying for hotel and rental car but only payed for hotel after the interviews.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at General Atomics (San Diego, CA) in Mar 2023
Interview
Be prepared for the interviewer to ask you to discuss a subject
of your choice—This is your chance to relate an experience
where your unique skills, knowledge, and personality resulted
in success. You could discuss a lab, a team project, your
senior project, or a project you did to gain experience. An
ideal story would show how you analyzed a problem, came
up with a solution, executed your plan, made something work,
and learned something valuable.
