Our manufacturing interview toolkit/cheatsheet: - bring in something you made. or have it in the background of your video call if remote. our best hires have done the intro call from their shop or workbench - show-and-tell your favorite 5 tools - describe what would you do for work if you didn’t have to get paid for it - talk about your hobbies, show off some photos. Saying “video games” is pretty meh unless you are applying to our simulation team - explain your favorite method of joining dissimilar materials - tell us about a part you designed that didn't work and how you changed it - if you've ordered from us, bring the part. if you haven't, tell us what you'd make with your employee discount. we love hiring customers - show us a jig, spreadsheet, or script you built to save yourself work - name a fastener, material, or process you think is overrated and defend it (7075 lol) - talk about a tool you bought that you regret
