Interview
Called with recruiter about potential fit with stalink mechanical for electrical position. I have a tendency to ramble about my work and I feel like I may have bored the recruiter. My advice would be let them probe about things they might be curious about instead of information dumping.
Rigorous but fairly reasonable in my experience. The technical problems often has a twist but if you have strong fundamentals you should be able to perform well. The recruiter and interviewers I interacted with are all very nice people.
