Leidos interview questions

Two months after applying received email to set up interview for the following week. The hiring manager clearly didn't have any formal process for interviewing candidates. He even told me that he don't know what to ask and did not seem familiar with my resume. The only question he did ask was if I had any internship experience (this was an entry level position), I replied no. He would have known this if he actually read my resume. After this he struggled to think of some questions but eventually passed me off to another person to conduct a tour of the lab. This person didn't ask me anything either. I was rejected the next day. This "interview" was a complete waste of time for everyone involved. Any amount of due diligence on the hiring managers part would have saved everyone's time. Edit: A couple days after my interview, the job listing was re-posted but looking for more experience. I don't think I actually had a real interview. I think the manager was gaming the system to get the customer to pay for more experienced people, but had to give the appearance of actually trying to find qualified entry-level candidates.

The interview process was pretty standard and moved fairly quickly: I applied online on Leidos' website for the position. A recruiter followed up 2 weeks later to confirm interest and several basic things about my resume. I received a call from the same recruiter the next day to schedule an on-site interview and answer other basic screening questions. The on-site interview was scheduled for the same week, where I went to Leidos' local office to meet the hiring manager in person. The hiring manager's manager was also video called into the interview to listen in and ask questions. Most questions were related to prior experience on my resume, but also inquired into whether I would be interested in the work their group did. After concluding the interview, I received a call from the recruiter later that day to notify me that Leidos would be extending an offer. Though they were open to salary negotiation, I decided the opportunity was not a good fit after all and declined the offer.
