I applied online. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Northrop Grumman (Chandler, AZ) in Jan 2023
Interview
First round interview conducted over the phone. After following NG interview recommendations in answering the first question "tell me about yourself", the interviewer spent most of the time exploring my interest in different types of roles within the organization and emphasized that there were a lot of opportunities. He asked almost nothing about my professional background or fit for the actual role that I had applied to. At the end of the interview, I was told that the next steps would be a follow-up interview in a week. I then learned a few days later that they would not be moving forward with me without any explanation as to why. A poorly conducted interview in my opinion, unless there was some reason I was passed over that is unrelated to my competence.

Interview
Virtual over the MS Teams, no cameras on. Panel consisted of Hiring Manger and two others. The asked questions about my resume which made me believe they actually read it! Questions were very much STAR format for response. They provided quite a bit of time at the end to allow me to ask questions about the company and the position.

The interview process was great overall. Went to a networking event that I was able to talk to the hiring manager who was engaging about the work being done and answering my questions. A formal interview was scheduled a couple weeks later which went through my job experience and answering some technical questions about mechanical design. Overall it was great.
