I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Eaton (South Milwaukee, WI)
Interview
Brief phone interview from HR, and then a 30 minute call from the engineering manager. After the phone screening, an onsite interview was set up. The interview takes about five hours, and I was interviewed by 6 different people (two people per hour for three hours). The last two hours were spend touring the facility. Basic STAR questions were asked. I was asked about projects on my resume, but there weren't really any technical questions. The process took a couple weeks, and I was given the offer two days after the interview (this probably isn't typical).

I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Eaton (Whittier, CA) in July 2024
Interview
It's a basic hiring interview process that involves one phone interview with the recruiter and manager. The final interview consists of an onsite interview with the team. Questions were mainly scenario-based questions from the recruiter to the onsite interview. I highly suggest reviewing STAR-based questions. Not too technical.
