I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Lutron Electronics (Coopersburg, PA) in Dec 2008
Interview
I applied the job from the job posting on my college job portal. I then got a call for a phone screening interview.
The phone interview lasted for half hour. I was asked a couple of questions involving power,voltage,current relationships..I was given a simple circuit containing bulbs,the bulb ratings were given to me and I was asked to find out a couple of p,v,i parameters about the circuit. Then I was asked about my internship experience and questions about my academic projects. I was told I was selected for the next on site interview after a few days and they flew me to Coopersburg, Pa.
They got me to the hotel the evening before the interview day for an informal dinner with some of the employees and other interview candidates. We had a good time talking to them and know more about the company. The next morning myself , along with the other candidates were taken to the headquarters. My first interview was a technical round. Two guys interviewed me. Most of the questions dealt with basic circuit analysis containing bulbs with different ratings arranged in different topologies in the circuit. The next round was a presentation that I gave on a project i did at school. Thats it.

Question 1
One question dealt with the basic circuit analysis with a circuit containing three bulbs arranged, with different ratings.It is not a difficult one but you really have to be strong in basic circuit analysis

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Lutron Electronics (New York, NY) in Feb 2026
Interview
Applied online. They sent an email scheduling an interview with a senior employee. During the interview he first talked about the company and then went into the technical part of the interview. Where it was mostly OOP type questions and pointer manipulation. Everything was done was on this live notepad website, no IDE, he would copy and paste your code to see if it would run. Very nice guy, however, I am not the best programmer, mostly a hardware guy. Did not allow me to write on a piece of paper, cameras on, does not record your screen.
Not hard, very straight forward. But I didn't know it was a technical I assumed it would be a behavioral only. I feel like I'll do way better if I tried again because now I know there first interview is straight to the point
