I applied online. I interviewed at RE2 Robotics (Pittsburgh, PA) in Feb 2020
Interview
The onsite interview consists of many stages. The first being interviewed by 5 engineers simultaneously. They will ask anything from your experience to analyzing free body diagrams. The next phase is with some of your collogues that you would be working with. The final phase is with upper management and mangers of different departments. They'll ask a slew of questions about various specifics things you've done, strengths/weaknesses, etc. Total time for the onsite was around 5 hours for me.
