I applied through university. I interviewed at Pure Technologies (Calgary, AB) in Mar 2016
Interview
Very thorough assessment of mechanical engineering principles. The interview was a 40/60 balance of interpersonal questions and technical questioning and quizzing. The mechanical design department utilizes a vast array of engineering principles and all topics I was quizzed on were applicable to the role I ultimately found myself in. Topics included manufacturing and fabricating processes, material properties, an solid mechanics.
