I applied through university. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Sensata Technologies (Boston, MA) in Oct 2017
Interview
I encountered Sensata at a college career fair and submitted my resume to them.
About four business days later they contacted me about an on-campus interview scheduled for two business days later.
I met with the interviewer for only thirty minutes and mostly went over my resume and personal projects, and how the skills intersected with the skills they were looking for. We also talked about the function and operation of the sensors being developed at Sensata.
