8,821 lead electrical engineer interview questions shared by candidates

The actual difficulty of the interview is dependent primarily on your knowledge of water and power processes and architectures. It especially helps if you know DWP's. If you have a background in either or both, then the interview will be much easier. If you were a LADWP intern, then this will be a really easy interview. However, the water and power-related questions are the deal breakers. Since this is a city agency (similar to other government and state agencies), it will take approximately 1-3 months to get your results. Your results are in the form of a score. If you score below 90%, forget about getting hired, and you will have to wait an entire year and start the process all over again. If you got around 80% you might get considered later down the line, so long as your "list" has not expired, but if you get anything below 80 or 90%, it is an extremely low chance that you will get anything.

If an engineer gave you a set of plans and you saw they were wrong and you went back to the engineer to let him know that they were wrong, but the engineer told you they were right, how would you approach this?
