I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at RTX in Nov 2016
Interview
I applied online and they already had a copy of my resume from participating in the SECCDC. Contacted me a week later and started the interview process in early October.
Asked me some preliminary questions in an e-mail, and then set up an initial phone screen. After the phone screen, I had a technical interview with the team I will be working with. It was a video interview with 4 other Raytheon employees. Drilled me with questions but the entire process was respectful and positive
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Describe some technologies that are implemented in the CPU that helps prevent exploitation of software?
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at RTX (Phoenix, AZ) in Nov 2015
Interview
I talked to numerous employees at a networking event. There, I was able to get an interview for the following day at the career fair. As I arrived to the booth for the interview, they did not seem to have an engineer on hand to interview me. I was interviewing for an internship position, however, did not know the department I was interviewing for. The questions were mostly behavioral, and also asked of my skills. Overall, the interview was more like a conversation, as the interviewer sat diagonally instead of in front of me, and I thought the interview went well. However, after months of waiting and e-mailing, I got no response.
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at RTX in Sep 2016
Interview
I approached the recruiter at a career fair and got offered an interview for a cybersecurity internship. Mostly an interest questionnaire and basic programming/skills review since I was a freshman. The interview process was very smooth, and the recruiter and interviewer were friendly. The interview was extremely casual, and I learned some new things during it.
