      Mechanical Engineer Interview

      12 July 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience

      Application

      I interviewed at Generac Power Systems

      Interview

      I applied to this company and 30 seconds later, I got a response telling me that my experience is not what they are looking for, I have experience in FEA and CFD, that is what they ask in the job post. what a poor process of screening, seriously this should be done by engineers and not by the recruiter. 99% of the time they have no clue what they need.

      Mechanical Engineer Interview

      6 Sept 2013
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Whitewater, WI
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Generac Power Systems (Whitewater, WI) in Aug 2013

      Interview

      Recruiter phone screen was ok. One of the first questions was if my salary expectations were in the upper 50's. Pretty low but I said yes and figured it would take longer to negotiate to a more reasonable number. The rest of the questions were typical questions about my resume and previous experience. Second interview was with a supervisor. This person seemed really disinterested and asked me questions like "tell me about your last position". Nothing technical and when I asked if they had any questions about past projects or work situations they said "no, that's okay".

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      All generic and typical questions.
