I applied through college or university. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Cummins (Columbus, IN) in Oct 2011
Interview
They came for a university careeer fair where I have a 1:1 interview. Then within a week they took a second round of telephonic interview. Then, I get to know my results within a week of the interview. Most of the questions are behavioral.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell us a situation when you had a conflict with the team mates and how do you resolve that?
Initial screening call - with HR
Phone technical interview - with hiring manager
Panel technical interview
Be sure to have strong technical answers to whatever you have written in your resume.
Interview process is typical of employers within the industry. It involved 2 separate interviews, one 30 min meeting with a recruiter and another longer 1 hour meeting with the team leader.
Relatively simple. Talked about my experience and various scenarios that may come up in real life. Be through with the basics of controls theory and your projects and you should have a good chance of acing the interview
