The mangers on the interviewing pool are very young, which I heard now is to only focus on the hiring practice of only new grads and to stay between age 25-35 years old. Having four interviews because a former coworker networked me in, I experienced first the lack of knowledge of industry best practices and management ageism in full view was the results. Explaining DMAIC, RCA, lean concepts in both in engineering design ties to manufacturing for DFMEA/PFMEA was met with confusion from the interviewing managers. Design engineering and manufacturing engineering competency tools all seemed very foreign and clueless to all the young hiring managers. Needless to say, 40 years of experience in fortune 100 companies practice and establishing engineer and business lean processes did not get me the role, or even any communications. Ghosted.
