I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Northrop Grumman in Mar 2013
Interview
Very friendly atmosphere. Both interviewers were happy to meet me and fully explained the job position. They were both inquisitive of my prior military experience. They both took turns in asking questions (6 technical questions and 6 common interview questions). They were impressed with my business suit and shoes. Of course, I did dress appropriately for this interview (900 dollar Italian wool suit with 200 dollar leather dress shoes). They were amazed at my mannerisms and communication skills. I am now waiting for a call from the Hiring Manager to determine my hiring status.
