I applied online. I interviewed at Boeing (El Segundo, CA) in Feb 2018
Interview
Boeing's recruiting process is a complete joke, and a waste of time. I applied for a requisition months ago. I got a phone call setting up an interview about a month later. So I interviewed for this position (typical STAR structured question/answer session) over the phone and then a day later I get a call saying they want to give me an offer. Great! The recruiter said they needed to work out some details but I'd get an official offer soon. I wait a week, nothing. I email him and he just kept giving excuses every time I'd call or email him, saying the hiring managers were on vacation, they were at a job fair, they were still finishing up my offer, whatever. Another few weeks go by. I email again and get no response. Another few weeks pass... Then out of nowhere I get that typical form letter "Thank you for applying but we have decided to go with another candidate". What?! I try calling the recruiter and find out he quit (or got fired) weeks ago! The new recruiter couldn't give me a straight answer, and after going back and forth again, the hiring manager finally contacted me and gave me some BS answer. What a complete joke of a company. Looking at other reviews, it seems like they enjoy wasting people's time just for the sake of filling their interview quotas.

I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Boeing (Montgomery, AL) in Feb 2018
Interview
A phone interview with 5 questions in STAR format. I was interviewed by 3 employees, and asked a series of questions that assess my personality more so than my technical ability. To this end, I felt it necessary plug my technical ability into each answer.

Tell us about a time you overcame a challenging situation
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Boeing (Seattle, WA) in Feb 2018
Interview
The interview was a behavioral interview with a panel consisting of the hiring manager and a few of the other members of the team. The questions prompted descriptions for situations in which a particular trait or characteristic or technical ability was elicited. Overall, fairly easily experience compared to most other technical interviews I've done recently.
