Interview
I met the company at a local job fair. I wasn't initially planning on heading to their booth but I stopped by and dropped off my resume. I just asked some generic questions about the company and gave my background and expressed some interest. Two days later I was contacted and asked if I was still interested in the position.
After replying and applying to the position online I was given a skills test that consisted of vocabulary and basic math skills, and microsoft word and excel quizzes.
After that I had a brief phone interview and then went onsite for the final interview. I met with a woman from HR and went over my resume. She asked why I was interested in the position even though it was outside my interest of math/computer science. She also asked if I was interviewing anywhere else, to which I said no but I was looking. I then had a situational interview with two managers who were two and three levels above the position. The questions were normal and then we went upstairs to view the floor and others in that role. I spent ten minutes with a manager at that level and she showed my the ropes and allowed for questions. She then showed my out and told me I would hear back.
Eight days later I heard back and was told that they went with someone who better fit their qualifications.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a time when you had to deal with an unruly customer.
I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Aerotek in Apr 2012
Interview
They seem like they are genuinely interested in finding their clients a job, if for no other reason than the sooner you get hired, the sooner they can take their cut. I don't mean that in a negative way, but that is how they make their money. I spoke with their engineering specialist, who was friendly and knowledgable. She asked me what I was interested in doing, what sort of things motivated me, and wanted to know more about my research experience. She closed with some sample interview questions, and then gave feedback on my responses. Overall relatively helpful, though I haven't found a position as of two weeks after the initial interview.
