I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at BNSF Railway (Columbia, MO) in Feb 2022

Interview

Very cold and uninterested during the interview. I had no clue how I was doing during the interview. Also had to go through long information session about the company just to do a first round interview.

Interview

The initial interview was one of those interviews where it just pops up with a question and starts filming you soon after the question pops up, not my favorite interview style. However, the second round of interview was in person and the people were very personable and made me feel comfortable.

Not hard at all- there were simple instructions with using their interview software. The software gave you time to think of answer for the question. Very easy to use website.
