I interviewed at Northrop Grumman (Cincinnati, OH)
Interview
Got referred through friend and got called for an interview. Object oriented programming question and few cybersecurity questions. Mix of both technical and behavioral questions. Overall pretty easy process in my opinion.
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Northrop Grumman (San Antonio, TX) in Dec 2022
Interview
Contact by a recruiter to set up an interview. The recruiter set me up for 9:30AM but send me confirmation email from 9:00AM. I wasted 30 minutes sitting in Team call. It was a red flag and feel like the team is incompetent. The salary i got was $18k less than other aerospace company. They did not want to negotiate. Overall bad experience and bad employee. I declined the offer.

Interview
This is for a position in the Ohio location. There were two interviews:
1. Phone Screening
2. Panel Interview
The phone screen was mainly to look over at your resume, not too difficult.
The panel interview was more of a technical interview, testing how you think and how clearly you can communicate. They are also testing your "cultural fit", so it is best to act passionate about the position. There were no coding exercises.
