Quick and to the point. They ask a few questions and then you find out if you get the job offer (which is conditional). You’ll have to take a drug test, background test and physical exam before being cleared for the job
I applied online. I interviewed at Amtrak (Philadelphia, PA) in Aug 2014
Interview
Wasn't too hard. Two people sit at a desk and question you about previous experiences with customers, co-workers etc. to see how you handle yourself in certain situations. Didn't last too long and was told at the end that I did very well. My offer call came soon after. Training was the longest ever (120 days) but for good reason. Lots of codes and things to learn and memorize.
