I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Naval Sea Systems Command (Kittery, ME)
Interview
Interviews are laid back, dont ask a lot of probing questions, I got the impression they rely very heavily on resume and transcripts.
The hiring process was fairly dissatisfactory. They wanted to move me, but didnt know how that was done or how it would be paid for. There were benefits promises made, that exist at other facilities, but not at PNSY, and they never did (tuition reimbursement/ student loan assistance, for example)
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There were no difficult or unexpected questions with any interviews with this location. Almost all standard scripted questions anyone would ask
I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Naval Sea Systems Command (Portsmouth, NH)
Interview
super casual, interviewers were super nice, one of them seemed like he hated his job but the other two should be salesmen. I did a good amount of prep work, but they asked super basic questions, very laid back process for me at least.

Question 1
What I do outside of school, hobbies, etc. (I'm currently a student)
May vary depending on group. Only had 1 behavior interview. Received an offer about 1 month after the interview. The recruiter interviewed me, however the direct hiring manager may also be the one interviewing.

Question 1
Asked about work background and asked generic situational questions.
I applied through university. I interviewed at Naval Sea Systems Command
Interview
Went through a list of questions, did not feel very conversational and they didn’t open up to me a lot, which left me with a feeling of “meh”. Seems like the work is mostly just maintenance and technical writing, not much actual engineering. They said expect to hear back within a month or so if you move on in the process.

Question 1
My advice would be to remember that safety and following rules in number one important. There was one sorta technical question that was really designed to see how you think and solve problems, just go with it.
