Due to COVID, phone conversation with hiring manager and senior pilot. Good conversation discussing the position, expected responsibilities, and "Why KBR?". Overall good experience and it seemed like they were interested in me.
I applied online. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at KBR in Feb 2020
Interview
I applied online and was able to contact the hiring manager directly. The whole interview process from initial emails to hearing back took about 5 months, although COVID did hit right in the middle of all of it. The first interview was over the phone with just general questions, explained my past experience, why I was interested in the job, etc. Then 2 weeks later I got an email saying that I was being invited to Houston to do a day long interview/tour/presentation, which inevitably ended up getting canceled.
So my 2nd interview was over Microsoft Teams where I gave a 15 minute technical presentation to a group of other hiring managers and technical folks, I believe there were about 15 people in on that call, 5 of whom were other KBR hiring mangers in other departments. Three months later, after following up several times, I was told I was not offered the role.
