Interview
Had an interview with a corporate employee at a career fair. Really enjoyed talking to her...didn't feel like an interview at all.
My second interview was at the plant. The weather was very rainy/gloomy so I got a plant tour in a car and met everyone at the plant I'd be working for. My interview team consisted of 3 employees - two leaders and a production engineer. Asked standard behavioral questions which lasted about 1-2 hours then they gave me an hour to ask questions. Company paid for my flight, hotel, rental car, and lunch. I really liked the people and what they had to say about the company. No technical questions

Interview
I was interviewed by three people. The questions were doable. Technical skill section, and other questions. Even though I didn’t get the offers, I felt confident during the interview. It was a video interview.
The first round is initial screening Via phone I want to say with the manager and then a video call with the team would be the second round as far as I remember .
