Ford Motor Company Systems Engineer interview questions

Technical Staffing firm did initial interview for salary, goals, and discussion of the position description Ford did in person interview with a panel of a few engineers for about an hour. Far too short. Questions were basic and straight forward. Some were about problem solving, describing how you would handle a issue reported as broken. Fit was important so a lot of the questions were to ask about fit and there was discussion between team members to see how the candidate would react, interject, or comment. Team was very positive, team oriented, and focused on knowledge sharing. Staffing firm was pushy, wanted to commit to job before interview, wanted to know if you wanted to take it before the final offer was given. It was a strong turn off and at one point I almost walked away from the process out of being pushed to make a decision.

Process involved coming onsite for several days and working with other potential hires on working on issues dealing with business decisions on the manufacturing of cars. Several different interviews were done and evaluations were done by panels on hire decision.
