      Graduate Mechanical Engineer Interview

      Jul 2, 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Newcastle upon Tyne, England
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at British Engines (Newcastle upon Tyne, England) in May 2018

      Interview

      Informal chat with two managers from Michell Bearings one of the companies under the British Engines Umbrella. Main interview was talking about myself and academic experience followed by a discussion over a technical drawing to explain what different parts of a Michell bearing were called and their function. This was not too hard as I had researched the bearings before the interview. Was told I would hear back the following week however a month passed and I had heard nothing, was eventually told I had not been successful after sending a follow up email. I feel this is pretty poor on the companies behalf as I had taken the time to come to the interview. I also sent a follow up email asking for feedback which was ignored.
