I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at John Deere (Ames, IA) in Feb 2024
Interview
The process started with a 15 minute video call screening to determine interests, willingness to relocate, etc. Next was an hour online assessment consisting general cyber security questions and two coding problems of easy difficulty. Finally, there was a behavior interview with two employees. The interviewers outlined their expectations regarding the best answers (STAR method), then alternated asking questions. The interview lasted one hour.
