I applied online. I interviewed at General Atomics (San Diego, CA) in Feb 2022
Interview
Still in the middle of the process, but one 30 minute phone interview and one 3 hour in-person session (moved to virtual for my case) seems pretty par for the course here.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
In this project, how did you solve a particular issue?
Straight forward - 30 minutes phone screen with behavioral and technical questions on C++.
Followed by 5 hour in-person or virtual interview which included both technical and behavioral questions. Each hour was a different interview with different people.
A 30 minute microsoft teams meeting with questions regarding basic C++/C knowledge, resume review, and generic behavioral questions. Delved specifically into how I work in a team environment, personal strengths and weaknesses, and how to address difficult conversations.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at General Atomics (Poway, CA) in Apr 2026
Interview
30 minute phone call, technical screening with questions around data structures and operators. Last half was resume screening. It was more of a genuine conversation about competency and skill and why you're interested with GA.
