I applied online. I interviewed at BAE Systems USA in Nov 2021
Interview
The interview process consisted of only two rounds. The first was a phone interview and a zoom interview with four senior engineers.
The phone interview was very straight forward and asked a mix of behavioral and technical questions that any entry level engineer should know.
The zoom interview started with an orientation followed by three 45 minute one on one interviews with senior level engineers. The questions asked leaned more heavily on the technical side, but had a fair share of behavioral questions. There were no whiteboarding/leetcode type of questions to be solved, however I was given code snippets and asked what they do. It ended with a Q&A session with the senior engineer who went through the orientation. Interview lasted 3 1/2 hours.
Overall it was a generally easy interview compared to some others I've encountered as there were no real coding challenges to solve.

Interview
Quick phone interview. No technical questions. Shared about company culture. Very easy to talk to the hiring manager and ask questions about the work environment. Hard to get a good understanding of the specifics of work there due to security reasons.
