I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at SolidProfessor (San Diego, CA) in Aug 2014
Interview
Consists of a group panel interview, a presentation where you must teach the panel about anything you want, a grammar test, and SOLIDWORKS test since you will be using this software daily. Other than that just relax and answer the questions responsibly and accurately. It helps if you know someone in the company who already works there.
