J'ai postulé via un établissement d'enseignement supérieur ou universitaire. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Caterpillar (Lafayette, IN) en sept. 2025
Entretien
There were 2 people who took my interview, and they alternated in asking questions. Extensively used the STAR process where questions are mainly personality based. They ask about your experience in teams you were in and the contributions you made. I would recommend asking some good questions because they are very friendly and like talking with you.
