      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Caterpillar

      Interview

      I applied online and received a phone call about a month later to come onsite for the interview. The interview was with two hiring managers. They followed the STAR format. The interview itself was fairly informal and there was a good amount of conversation going on. I felt very relaxed and comfortable.
