Good luck.

If asked a question and you can't think of an answer quick enough, then ask to come back to it rather than stumble or go Errrr!

Advice given to me by my step dad who does a lot of interviews.

Wow interview was interesting... Questions like "whats the most creative thing you've ever done". Pretty standard interview question I guess but difficult to answer. Is it the way you answer that tells them things about you?

Had two interviews, one was more relaxed with the operations managers - a bit of humour. But the other with the engineering manager was very formal. Made a big difference to how I answered the questions.

I think I managed to get across what I'm about, how I intend to go about the role, and what obsticles I know I will have to overcome. If they like my way of thinking then I could get it, if not I wont. We will see.

started blathering about a petrol kart i made when i was at school, how we upgraded it so it had a live axel and could do doughnuts, and then changed the gearing so it would out-drag our mate's metro.

engineering, continuous improvement?? or a load of old ********!!??

What kind of process engineer are you? And what kind of company were you looking at a job with?

Hope you get the job (that's if you want to work for them ;) ).

It was an internal vacancy at my current employer. We are one of the world's largest manufacturers of electronic components.

My plant makes wire & cable for the aerospace and defence industry. I am responsible for several wire extrusion lines, an "electron beam" that irradiates the wire to crosslink the polymer, and some braiders to shield wire, multicore cables and co-ax.
