Quite straightforward and really simple with just one exercise and describing previous experiences and the technologies I have previously worked on as well as previous projects and their goals

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Eaton
Interview
I applied on their website and got contacted for a phone interview later that week. The next week, I had an interview at their facility with members of the team, my future manager, and HR. Part of this process was a 20 minute presentation where I covered my educational background, career ambitions, project experiences, etc. This was followed by some technical questions about my project I presented on.
The staff was some of the most friendly I have interviewed with. I felt less like it was an interview and more that they were trying to get to know me and see if I was a good fit for the company. Everyone was extremely helpful and quite excited to answer my questions. Overall, it was one of the more pleasant interviewing experiences I have had.
