I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Northrop Grumman (San Diego, CA) in Feb 2021
Interview
It was not too bad. The people who were interviewing had good knowledge and seemed to ask thoughtful questions. Overall was a positive experience. I don't think that the questions were all too hard.
I applied online. I interviewed at Northrop Grumman (Chandler, AZ)
Interview
STAR interview. Basic questions. Very simple interview and interviewer was easy to read. Nothing special or new to anybody looking for a job at a gov. business or contracting role. Clearance questions etc...
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Past experiences, hypothetical situations, how you would fit in org. structure
The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Northrop Grumman (Baltimore, MD)
Interview
Low key interviews, the approach is not to grill you about technical competence but rather make sure you are a good fit for the company: whether you are driven, team player, mission oriented, etc. Expect to not be told much about the specifics of the work you would do, given the nature of the work. Every group is different, so I'd recommend asking plenty of questions about the team size, project diversity and anything else they can tell you about the department you would be joining.

Question 1
Almost entirely focused on questions related to my past experiences; how I solved difficult problems and worked with others. Know your resume and expect to speak to it clearly.
