I applied through a staffing agency. I interviewed at Electronic Source Company (Van Nuys, CA) in Jan 2016
Interview
I applied on line. A recruiter from a staffing called the following day and did a quick check about my past experience. She was able to set me up with in person interview within the same week. There's no parking in the facility for visitor. Show up early for the interview. You also required to fill-out the job application. I met with the Engineering Manager first. Interviewed with Production Supervisor took about 20 minutes. Then the Program Manager about 15 minutes. The longest part was with the Engineering Manager. He actually took notes of your past experience in detail. For every single job you had starting from college, you had to tell him what you did. Refer to "Interview Questions" in detail. I was there for 4 hours. They called me back for 2nd interview with the owner. He asked the same questions. They were very nice through out the interview. We were interrupted couple of times because there were issue going on.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
For every single position you held, be ready to talk about your accomplishments. What did you like most and what you'd like to change. Tell me about your experience. If I call you boss today, what would he/she say about you. What would be your weakness.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Electronic Source Company in Jan 2014
Interview
I was interviewed on the phone by the CEO and owner himself, which means its a pretty small company. He's probably very good with technology, but didn't seem very good with people. He seemed uncomfortable asking the questions and seemed to be ignoring my answers, often asking questions about things we've covered just a few questions ago, forcing me to repeat myself. He also was barely able to answer any questions about the position or the company, struggling to formulate his thoughts coherently.

Question 1
"We are looking for high performers. Are you a high performer? What demonstrates it?" After talking in length about my various achievements in life, including graduating at the top of my class and receiving quick promotions in the past because of my high performance, his followup was "I don't hear high perfomance. Any other examples?"
