I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Raytheon (Grapevine, TX) in Sept 2023
Interview
Confirming you are actually talking to a recruiter, is a must, but once you are in touch with them the process is simple. However, even the entry level jobs require someone with senior level experience. You are likely to be over looked if you haven't worked with their preferred software. It almost seemed like the wanted a Scrum Master and Software Engineer rolled into one for an entry to mid level systems position.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I was asked about experience with Visual Studio and IBM development suites as far as writing test software. They also wanted to know if I had any project management experience using Jira.
Single panel video interview, general questions about my degree, projects on my resume, willingness to learn, and motivation for applying. Nothing too technical and very friendly interviewers. Prepare stories based on your resume and have them memorized. Show a genuine interest in the role and location and try to connect with the interviewers.
Got a call from a recruiter and was set up for a Zoom interview right after. The interview was mostly behavioral, and be sure to know your resume because they will ask about it.
Started with an introduction of everyone (including myself) and then transitioned into going through my resume. Interview consisted of mostly behavioral questions with the occasional technical question about my resume.
