      Mechanical Engineer Interview

      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at BWX Technologies (Arnprior, ON) in Jun 2022

      Interview

      Unorganized, confusing, unprofessional. It seemed possibly too early in the morning for them. There were 3 members conducting the interview however no one knew who should ask what question. It seemed they would just ask what ever popped in there head as if they were trying to show they did in fact know what they were doing. Also, although there was 3 people conducting the interview it seemed there may be a 4th but nobody was entirely certain. Bizzare!

      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at BWX Technologies (Lynchburg, VA) in Oct 2022

      Interview

      Basic phone interview with the hiring manager and lead engineer. Asked questions about what I liked and disliked in my current role and why I want to join their team, etc. No technical questions really since my resume outlined the same responsibilities that the open role would have. They said on the spot that they wanted to make me an offer. However, when I got the offer, it was 15% below what I had put in my application for salary expectations. When I called HR to try to negotiate the offer, they did not budge one dime. Not on PTO policy, not on 401k, not remote work, not bonus, not salary, NOTHING. Honestly a waste of my time when they knew they weren’t going to get me for a cheap price. Their loss since they said they’d been looking to fill this role for months and really needed someone to start asap. Lesson learned: if they’re not willing to work with you before you accept the job, they won’t work with you after you take the job.
