      Chief Engineer Interview

      7 Jan 2015
      Anonymous employee
      McLean, VA
      Accepted offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at MITRE (McLean, VA)

      Interview

      Grueling. Extended. Painful. Interview process began with a series of 1-1 interviews with 6 different senior execs. Then advanced to 4 group interviews with different department heads and their technical leads who wanted to play "stump the candidate". At any point any single interviewer had veto power to kick you off the short list. To say you felt like an ant under a magnifying glass would be an understatement.

      How will your past work experience ensure that you are not a failure at MITRE?
