They asked what I knew about controls and Thermo Systems in general? They asked about prior work experience and how I thought that experience led me to Thermo. They asked if I felt I was team-oriented, and if I would be willing to help people out? They also asked how my major would prepare me for the job.

The question was a long coding assignment in which the candidate is asked to develop a controller in MATLAB, for a simple vehicle point-mass model, that has it follow a straight line path and then executes a U-turn. The model is provided by the interviewers but then you have to put together a presentation for the panel regarding your findings and whatnot.
