Interviewed with the team lead and another senior engineer which lasted over 1 hour. The first 30 minutes was questions about the resume, with them asking specific questions about your contributions. The next 30 minutes was a test on their computer which requires a calculator and some basic mechanical and electrical knowledge. The last 15 minutes is the lead taking you to the machine shop and asking you to identify each equipment or how it works.
