I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at JT Consulting Engineers (Garden Grove, CA) in Oct 2012
Interview
He asked very basic questions, like if I knew any CAD programs. It was a simple phone call and it was very casual because the company, again, is very small and private. I was referred to him from one of my mentors, so there was a filial connection. I think the only way to know that this company exists would be through word of mouth.
