The Boeing Company

Boeing has a schedule to try to keep so upper management is always willing to help remove road blocks. It is all in how you approach the road block however, communication between all of the groups that are building the systems that your team tests is paramount. They know when things are falling...

My interview for Boeing was a behavior interview, so a lot of emphasis is placed on how you work in a team, how you solve problems, and how you go about the design process. Most work on aircraft design is collaborative and so being able to work well in a team and to know how the design process wo...

Boeing does not have a mentorship program that I know of, but they do have a (I hear very rewarding) leadership development program offered to interns/new grads; this rotational program is very competitive and you have to apply for it after already being a part of the Boeing team for at least one...

I think succeeding at Boeing isn't necessarily difficult. It really depends on how you define success. For me, I think people who are go-getters are most likely to succeed. If you're ever bored on the job, which unfortunately tends to happen, find something to do, be it from your team or your man...

Besides your technical skills, you'll need to be able to a. LEARN. You'll continually be learning new things on the job. You'll need to be able to learn new software and systems. You'll need to learn how other people do their jobs. You'll need to learn about new materials and processes, ...

The work life balance will depend on your specific team but you likely will have a good balance between work and life. Most interns work no more than 40 hours a week, if you become full time you may work more depending on the situation. I had plenty of time for extracurricular activities.

This really depends on where you are, if you are in sustaining current production then schedules are very flexible and changing depending on Factory need.

One of the main pointers of this role is understanding how technology meets business needs. Ultimately, the IT department at Boeing, where this role is based, is a support department for Boeing, a business. Really understanding how technology is being used to solve a business need is a vital skil...

The culture at Boeing is always changing. The only constant is that things are going to change. Things will either speed up, the process of how things are done will change, or you job tasks will change. As long as you are adaptable you will not have any issues working at Boeing.

Upon being notified from recruiters at The Boeing Company that they would like to interview me, they sent a few documents over outlining how the interview would go. This interview was done over the phone and lasted approximately 45 minutes. In the documents sent to outline the interview, I was in...

Boeing looks for employees that will grow with the company and remain loyal employees for many years. You will want your entire resume to reflect an interest in a blue-chip aerospace company rather than an internet start up. This means that your possession of the latest technological skills will ...

It’s been awhile since I was there, but from what I remember, Boeing does a fairly generic interview, and if students are familiar with the STAR method, being able to answer the “describe a conflict and how you resolved it” is pretty standard to know and prep for well. They like students with pas...
