      Manufacturing Engineering Intern Interview

      15 Jan 2026
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Kent, WA
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Blue Origin (Kent, WA) in Dec 2025

      Interview

      I applied to the Summer 2026 Manufacturing Engineering Intern - Undergraduate position on Sept 29th 2025 (only a couple of days before the application closed). I received an email from a recruiter with an Invitation to Interview on Nov 21st 2025. The email provided 3 dates with 17 total time slots available for interviews - all during the first week of Dec. It stated that interviews were filled on a first come, first serve basis. Shortly after I emailed my availability for an interview slot, I received an email confirming the interview and providing additional information. The interview was broken into 2 parts: portfolio/project presentation with Q&A and technical/behavioral questions. The portfolio/project presentation was 10 mins followed by 5 mins of Q&A about the presentation. The rest of the interview was filled with the technical/behavioral questions. The interview was via Teams and the interviewers would mute and unmute their mics to ask questions. I couldn't tell if I was making a good impression because of this and the atmosphere was very professional and strictly back and forth dialogue of "answer this question" and then "thanks for answering, moving onto the next question".
