I applied through university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at UL Solutions (Northbrook, IL) in Jan 2020
Interview
Met at a career fair. Process went smooth and was transitioned to a role that would fit my experiences better. Used STAR interview questions during the in person interview. There were 3-4 people interviewing me at the same time.

Interview questions [3]
Question 1
Have you worked with electrical schematics? If so, in what capacity?
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at UL Solutions
Interview
A phone screening, then two interviews. One by phone and another in person. For an entry level position, they couldn't ask too much about applicable experience. They are more concerned with how you will fit in with their mission and uphold the name of the company. They also want to see that you have the desire to learn and stick around for a while. Everyone who interviewed me was incredibly nice and definitely made the interviews seem more like a conversation than a normal interrogation interview. I actually had a great time during my in person interview, we all had some laughs.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Standard interview questions for the 1st interview. Why did you study mechanical engineering? Why do you want this job? etc. Behavioral questions for the in person interview using the STARK method. Same as STAR (situation, task, action, results), but with the added element of Knowledge (what you learned).
