Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Even though working for the company, asked to interview directly with the military. They asked some odd questions, potentially because they have high turnover and didn't understand the scope of work sent to company to fill position.
I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at MPRI (San Diego, CA) in Oct 2011
Interview
Held job from previous contract but had to reapply for my own job when L3 took over. Even previous contract was minimal. Submitted online application with proper documentation. Got a call from a hiring manager who told me how to restructure my resume for maximum impact, and approximately a week later received offer over the phone.
