      Sr. Mechanical Engineer Interview

      Austin, TX
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Last Energy (Austin, TX) in Aug 2025

      Interview

      I went through the usual phone screen with the hiring manager, he was polite and it went well. The next interview was with a supervisor and a junior member that had just joined the company. That went very well and we had a great connection. I had the 3rd interview with the CEO. I had done the research and the rumors were not wrong. I was given a hard 15 minutes and it was he and I both talking as fast as we could to get the questions answered. Alarm bells are starting to go off. It must have went ok because I got a technical interview. This is were things really go off the rails. They put me in a small conference room flanked by 2 other engineers who didn't introduce themselves and were not friendly at all. They gave me a ridiculous problem that was basically designed to give them ideas, not test me. They recorded my screen and then at the end of the 1.5 hours I had to present my 'results' to a faceless group on the screen. I didn't even know who I was talking to. They must have not liked it because they didn't even bother to call back. This is after spending nearly 5 hours in interviews with no less than 9 different people.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      If you had to design this (it was a reactor containment, but they pretended like it was a textbook problem), How would you do it? Do the design in CAD, Do the analysis and present to the faceless TV. You have 2 hours. The problem did not demonstrate my knowledge for the job (or the job description was incorrect) it was testing my textbook engineering ability as if I were a new grad.
