First went through a brief in person chat at career fair. I was then invited to have an introductory behavioral interview. This was followed up by a longer more in-depth technical interview.

Question 1
Why would you make a plane fuselage out of aluminum instead of steel.
Phone screen interview included both behavioral and technical questions. The recruiter asked about my project experiences, technical skills, and involvement in engineering clubs to understand my hands on background and teamwork approach.
Intense with only technical questions for just the phone interview. It was supposed to be only 30 minutes and last an hour of pure technical questions. All of the questions were related to the job description though
