I applied online. I interviewed at Magna International (Auburn Hills, MI)
Interview
Asked questions about Kalman filter, PID control, and finally a simple C++ coding session to test my understanding of classes & inheritance . The interview was one stage and lasted 45 minutes.
The interview was long but organized. I spoke with the hiring manager, HR, and two technical positions (separately) for a total of about 3 hours. The interview itself was not intense, though.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Nothing out of the ordinary, just about my engineering experiences in college, skills and abilities, traits as a worker, etc.
Prefers in person to online interviews. Usually multiple interviewers. Not typically technical questions, mostly behavioural. Memorize your resume, they will have read through it in detail by the interview. A strong handshake and good eye contact will go far.
