      Entry Level Test Engineer Interview

      11 Mar 2025
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Spokane Valley, Spokane, WA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Keytronic (Spokane Valley, Spokane, WA) in Jan 2021

      Interview

      The interview was full of red flags. This interview was around Spring 2019. After the initial phone HR screen with HR Staff (Initials L.L), it sounded like this might be a good fit. I am a fluent Vietnamese Speaker and at that time, their manufacturing facility in Da Nang was going to be operational soon. Being fully bilingual, I thought I could be a strategic hire and I really wanted to work as and liaison here. I was scheduled to meet a department manager on-site. When I went in for my scheduled interview, the door was locked, no one was at the front desk and no one picked up the phone. I called the HR person originally coordinating with me. Still no response. Granted, I am seeking an entry-level role at the time and I was a college kid, but I would expect a bit more grace out of that. She was very apologetic the day after and tried to reschedule. I was finally scheduled an interview with a hiring manager, at my allotted time, No one called me on the phone. I should have bailed on this company at this point, but I just assumed more mistakes and was too nice about it. Once I finally got to the interview point, I was on the phone with the Hiring Engineering Manager, Initials M.B. It was one of the worst interviews I experienced to date. The manager was very condescending and felt like he was speaking down to me. He almost seemeded to be having a bad day and just had joy in speaking down to the fact that I didn't know something. He knew full well I was in my last year of engineering school. He had no interest in me, I don't know why he bothered to chat with me. I sensed hesitation, so I asked him how I could improve myself to be a better candidate. I was interested in an interview down the line in a few months once I graduate. He listed a laundry list of things he would want someone to know how to do for this position, an Entry Level Position. Understand how to use CAD, Labview programming experience, test engineering experience, PCA/PCBA experience, Hands-on experience with electrical test equipment (e.g., multimeters, DAQs, oscilloscopes, power supplies, and function generators), Pythong, Matlab, DFR, DFM and EOL testing, contract manufacturing experience. He stated that he would consider me if I had all those experiences at a minimum. I have the exact email chains and notes from when I initially interviewed, It was overwhelming to hear this as a college student. I have no idea why (M.B) was listing these things like this. I am unclear why all these requirements were requested by him when in reality the job description did not have any of it. Additionally, the salary range offered was about 55-65K at the time. Ridiculous ask. It was an unsettling experience. Since I did not vibe well, I did ask if he could recommend me to a different department since I wasn't what he was looking for. He just laughed and said he would ask around. When I reached out to HR to thank them and ask for his email to send a follow-up email to thank him, I got no further comment or communication from them. I bring it up years later because some 3rd party reached out sharing a job description saying I fit the bill with my Vietnamese. I chuckled and had to bring up all my notes. It still bugs me how I was treated. I still warn all graduates and people in my circle about this company. Judging by company reviews, I am not the only one with a bad experience here.
