I applied through university. I interviewed at PepsiCo (Valhalla, NY) in Apr 2023
Interview
Virtual panel interview. Two of the people invited didn't join (but they were optional anyway). From the people who interviewed me, one was a packaging engineer and the overall co-op program manager and the other was a packaging engineer and my direct manager.
Asked me general behavioral questions which anyone can look up, questions about what kind of work I liked doing and projects, and a few others related to packaging (but very basic). I said I don't know or I'm not sure for some of them, but they were nice and encouraging when I tried answering.
