I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Lockheed Martin
Interview
It was a panel interview with 3 representatives taking turns and asking behavioral interview questions. They asked a lot about team work and software skills, how I use excel, six sigma, lean manufacturing, projects in school, how I dealt with troublesome coworkers, and other basic interview questions. The interview was actually for a different major than me so that was a little unfortunate. The interviewers were professional yet kind.
Went to Hiring Event In January. A series of 3 interviews. I went through the first 2 interviews with no problem, questions were about actual mechanical experience and situations for behavior. The last interview turned into a splitting hairs session over when the last time I serviced an aircraft. I was treated like I had never touched a computer before or was capable of learning new ways of doing things.. One gentleman told me he was asked if he could keep up with the younger technicians. Still haven't heard back at all.

Question 1
what was the most challenging maintenance situation you ever had during your AF service and what did you do to fix the discrepancy? I actually liked this question.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Lockheed Martin (Mount Laurel, NJ) in Jan 2014
Interview
Early Career Development Program (ECDP)
Applied online. Began with an initial one on one screening on campus.
A month later was contacted to travel to an on-site interview in New Jersey. There was a group of around 15 candidates all from different universities. The candidates were all interviewing for the program but for different locations (New York, New Jersey, Maryland, Virginia, etc;) There was a dinner reception and presentation the night before the interviews at the hotel. This was an opportunity to socialize with other candidates, current program members, program manager, and hiring managers.
On the day of the interview we were given a tour of one of the facilities in New Jersey. Had two back to back 1 on 1 interviews. Was given the option of staying longer and taking another interview but I was not interested in working in the location of the third interviewer (hiring managers for different jobs/locations).
Was given presentations on the ECDP and FLDP on both days.
Was contacted within a week of the on-site interview with an offer

Question 1
Talk to me about a time when you had to sell something to someone and how did you manage the customers expectations while keeping them happy (I thought this was an unexpected type of question for a finance interview)
