I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Function Engineering (Palo Alto, CA)
Interview
Initial phone screen by mechanical engineer covered standard interview topics (some technical, some experiential, some guided by interviewee). Then invited for a full day of interviewing with 4 hour-long interviews and a lunch with prospective future team. Interviews were: soft skills, physics/conceptual walkthrough, general, and the final one had some brainstorming involved.
