I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Northrop Grumman (McLean, VA) in Mar 2015
Interview
Initial phone screen that had a lot of questions tied to "what if" scenarios around FAR/DFAR regulations and contract types to assess decision making skills. The second step was scheduling for in person interview which utilized a combination of "what if" scenarios and basic interview questions noted.

I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Northrop Grumman (Baltimore, MD) in Oct 2015
Interview
Northrop Grumman came to an university career fair and I spoke with a recruiter. Scheduled an in- person interview for October 20 at their office near BWI. The interviewer was very nice and personable. The interview felt more like a conservation rather than an interrogation- especially when I had the opportunity to ask questions at the end. I had about 3 or 4 questions prepared which started another conversation.
A very simple interview process.
