I applied online. I interviewed at Northrop Grumman (Sydney) in Aug 2024
Interview
was good technical interview and good challenging questions. It is also based on real life technical situations. Also shows basic and advanced skillset on troubleshooting. It was fun and challenging at the same time
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Technical questions about networking and OSI layer
Interview was conducted over zoom with camera on. Was asked standard behavioral interview questions such as strengths, weaknesses, challenges experienced, etc. Also had the opportunity to ask interviewer about the company and potential tasks.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Northrop Grumman (San Diego, CA) in Aug 2024
Interview
Absolutely atrocious. I was on PTO from my current role. I was taking care of my sick grandmother. I was given a days notice to prepare. I still managed to do well. After passing the phone interviews and the technical interview, i was told that i was done. Then last minute, they said someone else also wanted to interview me. i was told that they were trying to pick apart my resume and discredit years of my employment that weren’t as heavily focused on engineering. After the previous technical interviewer was half an hour late, the next one decided to follow suit by rescheduling our meeting an hour before it was set to take place… only they never rescheduled. It has been two weeks since. Communication has been non existent since. If they didn't want to pay me asking salary, they could have just acted like adults and said that, INSTEAD of wasting my time!
