I was invited to a hiring event through my information on LinkedIn. I had one interview scheduled before I arrived, but at the evening mixer the night before, I was able to secure two additional interviews for the next day. I was asked about my prior experience as well as my leadership experience, which seemed to be as interesting to the interviewers as my work experience. Once I described my mostly non-careerI was volunteer work, they became much more interested. For my position, they seemed interested in people skills. I described my volunteer service as a Boy Scout leader, a Cub Scout leader, a church volunteer, and as a full-time missionary. They seemed to appreciate the skills learned in those opportunities.

Took about 3 weeks and culminated with an hour and a half conference phone interview with multiple engineers and managers. Each took turns grilling me on past experiences, technical knowledge, and conceptual knowledge.
