Question 1
draw strain-stress curve. How does hardening process influence the curve?
The interview process consisted of an initial recruiter screen followed by a hiring manager conversation and multiple team interviews. The process was fairly structured and straightforward, with each stage building on the previous one. The final round included several back-to-back sessions that covered portfolio deep dives, design thinking, and collaboration. Everyone I spoke with was professional, thoughtful, and asked in-depth questions that pushed on both craft and problem-solving.

Question 1
Tell me about a project where you had to design for multiple iterations
Interview went well nothing strange. I was impressed at the general structure of the interview. I also like the vibe of the interviewer, That's all I have to say about that.
5-6 rounds of interview, design challenge, plenty of tech questions on mechanical basics. The first round was 30 min phone call, then tech interviews with managers, then a design challenge and group interview. The rest depends on team I feel like.
