I applied through other source. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Alcoa in Apr 2013
Interview
Thorough, but overall a laid back atmosphere. A lot of talk about the EHS culture and expectations. Asked for a general overview of my existing education and experience. I was then introduced to the group I would be working with. They were friendly as well, and clear about their expectations as an intern.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Explain your most technically relevant experience (school, previous job) and how can that relate/help the team on our projects. *Further details were then discussed in depth.
Phone screening, in person interview, very laid back and low pressure. Interviewer was very respectful and nice and gave me time to think through each question. Overall positive experience and would reccomend to a friend.
Stay clear or continue to interview if you receive an offer from them. My internship offer was rescinded late into the internship recruiting period leaving me with no offer for that summer.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Alcoa (Cleveland, OH) in Jan 2019
Interview
Smooth - started online, followed by two phone interviews and final in person interview. In person part of the interview was rather disorganized and didn't provide transportation (in the winter, with lots of snow) which was strange.
