I applied in-person. I interviewed at Caterpillar in Oct 2016
Interview
Three person panel interview committee. Each of the panel members asked two questions (total of six) from a standard template of questions. The majority of the questions were situational based vs specifics applicable to position. The environment was comfortable with the process taking approximately 45 minutes.
