I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Caterpillar in Nov 2010
Interview
They had a very structured interview process. They clearly had a form to fill out from HR with my responses. They weren't flexible at all and that threw me off. If I didn't answer their question head on, they weren't satisfied. The interviewers didn't even seem interested in getting to know me. It seemed like they were going through the paces and were bothered with the distraction.
