      Systems Engineer Intern Interview

      Apr 27, 2014
      Anonymous employee
      Birmingham, AL
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Southern Company (Birmingham, AL)

      Interview

      One in person interview with a panel (this was the team I would be working for). While this is a very corporate environment the team really allowed me to express my creativity and, end the end, I was offered the position because they were open to hiring a new voice.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      The interview mostly focused on my experiences in college, how I would handle certain scenarios, and a briefing of my skill set. I was asked to give an example of a time I engineered a seemingly impossible situation. My response was creative and true to real-life experiences. They weren't as interested in the solution as they were my thought process.
