I applied through university. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Eaton (Pittsburgh, PA) in Dec 2015
Interview
Talked with a recruiter at a job fair on college campus. Had an in person interview the next day. Questions were all behavioral and typical questions. Explained well what the program would look like and what could be expected. Paid for my flight out to Pittsburgh to interview at headquarters. Everyone was very friendly and I was able to talk with others currently in the program.
I applied through university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Eaton (Pittsburgh, PA) in Nov 2015
Interview
All of the questions are behavioral - use the STAR method to answer and have a few scenarios planned out that you think best represent who you are as a professional and engineering student. Make sure to really talk about your actions and what you learned from the experience/results. The "what you took away from it" question came up after almost every answer I gave and I think that can be a little difficult to come up with on the spot.
Be honest!
