I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Wheelworks (Belmont, MA) in Aug 2013
Interview
Sit down with the owner. He asks you some pointed questions about your skill set. Done! Pretty straight forward. Owner is a straight shooter- no BS. The interview is held in a crows nest like spot with other people milling about. You might get interrupted in the middle of it.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Do you know cold setting? Do you know wheelbuilds? etc.
