      I interviewed at Varex Imaging

      Interview

      Hiring manager met me in the lobby to take me back to the interview room. He used the time to ask me what I knew of the products produced and provide a little more clarity on the subject. He also used the walk back to show me the cafeteria, Varex credit union and talk a bit about the company and answer questions. The interview was with the hiring manager, two engineers, and one engineering technician. They took turns asking me about experience with process development/improvement, design changes, general engineering experience. They then presented me with two sets of 3D printed parts and asked me to tell them how I think they go together, they were older parts and a cheap 3D material, so the first one I had one part backwards (design allowed to fit either direction) and the next one I assembled correctly. I was then provided the opportunity to ask them all any questions I had. I can only remember a few of the questions I asked. How they feel about their benefits, how long they worked at the company and in the the department, how they liked working in their current position, and if they would recommend the position being interviewed for to someone. They definitely put out a vibe of woes and dismay, but they also had positive things to say about scheduling and the work/technology. After the interview, the hiring manager took me on a full tour of the daunting maze of a facility. I had interviewed at several other companies around the same time and was close to accepting an offer when I finally heard back from Varex HR giving me a compelling offer. I had completely forgotten about it and just assumed that they had moved on. It was 4-5 weeks before I heard anything, It was a call from HR with an unofficial verbal offering a Thursday with an official offer emailed the following Monday once I had verbally accepted. But then it was still another two weeks to complete the background check, drug test, and a completely separate and extensive application that I had to fill out last minute before I could give my employer my resignation notice. It took an astounding amount of time for everything to happen, start to finish. I may have been one of the first interviewees, but it still seemed to take way too long.
