I applied through university. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Caterpillar in Feb 2022
Interview
Applied through career fair got call two weeks for the first round interview.
After a month, got a seocond round interview request. (More like forced interview since the HR manger never replied to my rescheduling email).
Told I would get a result within two days. Then Igot ghosted. So, I moved on and got another position. Later I got a call that I got the position. It was so random.
Interviews were hard and very stressful. Asked behavioral questions first then grilled me on technical questions
I interviewed at Caterpillar (Monterrey, Nuevo León)
Interview
Proceso rápido y ágil, se espera buena experiencia técnica en esta área al menos en el puesto aplicado, entrevista dura y con varias personas. Se te pide un buen nivel de inglés y debes de demostrarlo en entrevista
The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Caterpillar (Chennai) in Feb 2026
Interview
It was nice, there were 2 panels who were taking an interview, a maximum of the questions were from the ML topics, Genai, LLMs, etc., and resume questions, the only confusing things for me was that i have asnwerd all the question though there were no call for the job, and also do the SQL they ask to write sql quaries.
