Description

Engineering interviews are something that every engineering student seeking a first- job and every experienced engineer making a career move must face. The interviewing process for engineers is similar to that of other professions, with the added factor of on-the-fly technical assessment. To do well on an engineering interview you must know your craft, how to prepare and what to expect.


1. Research the company

This is not an option! It is extremely important to gain basic information about the company for which you are interviewing. In a study, 47% of interviewers revealed that they wouldn’t offer the job to a candidate if they had little knowledge of the company.

Look up for important information about the company - vision and mission, key personnel, and recent milestones. You should also read up the latest news about the specific department or vertical for which you are interviewing.

2. Analyze job description

Along with researching the company?, be sure to note the key focus areas of the role you applied for. Read carefully the job description, and make a list of the points to justify how you are capable of achieving these specific duties.

In case you have past experience, mention briefly critical instances where you have contributed. Be eager and enthusiastic but not desperate.

3. Brush up basics

Along with an impressive personality, you also need excellent subject knowledge. Whether you are a fresher or an experienced professional, you can expect certain tough questions. Brush up your subject fundamentals if you are a fresher. In case you have work experience, organize your thoughts about your work and present them well.

4. Prepare for tests

Do prepare for any written tests, activities, and/or presentations that may be mentioned in the job posting. This way, there will be no surprises during the interview and you will be mentally prepared for it.

5. Prepare for potential interview questions

Most of the interviews have many common questions. Some of the examples of such common questions are - 'tell me about yourself', 'describe who you are', 'why should I hire you', 'why do you want this job', 'where do you see yourself in five years', etc. Make a list of such potential questions related to the job profile, background, company, etc. and prepare for them in advance.
