I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at RTX (Andover, MA) in Dec 2019
Interview
Over 20 various LinkedIn contacts by their HR, many redundant, and in as short a timespan as 2 weeks from the same recruiter. Majority of those ghosted me within the same or next day. One did follow through with approx. 30 to 45 minute phone screening, as we reviewed my experience outlined on my resume, and then mainly discussing the status of Raytheon, lots of projects, in need of staffing. Said he'd circulate my resume, and never heard from them again.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Being as this interview was solely with Raytheon's HR, the questions ran on two threads, tell me about this position, and this position and this position as he walked through my resume. He then asked about my range of interest in positions and salary and commuting requirements and if I were open to relocating (Raytheon's in many locations).
Was introduced as behavioral but was fairly technical. Asked a few technical questions about subjects of your choice. Discussed past experiences from my resume and what I would do in other technical scenarios.
Described the work done at the location. Then asked several unrelated technical positions to the job title. Asked about software engineering experience and principles unrelated to job description or responsibilities.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at RTX (Windsor Locks, CT) in May 2025
Interview
the interview was very laid back and conversational, mainly had typical behavioral questions with no technical questions. the interviewer was clear about when i would hear back and gave enough time to ask questions near the end.
