The process is highly technical and structured. It began with a presentation of my background and key projects. It was followed by a deep dive into the specific technical decisions I made in those roles/projects. This was followed by a high-level technical discussion on engineering fundamentals. It focused specifically on thermodynamics, materials science, and mechanics of solids. The interview concluded with situational questions regarding past experiences to assess problem-solving and teamwork in a professional setting.
