BoelterHall,

Give them some time to call. He sent that e-mail out to a lot of people, I bet... maybe 40+.

I accepted a position with Lockheed Martin in NY. I also have an offer from Boeing, but that's more CS related... and I'm an EE. I'm still interviewing with companies like Intel.

When I interviewed for the Lockheed in NY, they sent me an e-mail asking me to fill out a profile, too. It's not spam, it's legitimate. Lockheed Martin has HR recruiting centers that hire people. HR at the facilities are very small, compared to the main agencies. Each regional part of the US has one.

I also already accepted an offer but until 100% of the paperwork is complete and there could be absolutely no question about it, I won't just turn down an offer.

Also received message before after an on campus interview, I don't think it's spam but I also turned it down. LM is not such a great company to work for in my opinion.

Just wondering, what happens next? Campus interview or on site?

As far as the interviewing process goes, it depends on the location. I was contacted via phone and went straight to the facility for the interview. I didn't have a phone interview. I know other facilities (1 hour from the one I interviewed from) where they do a prescreen phone interview, then call you in for the face to face interview.

As far as working in a department, it's just the name. I wouldn't stress too much about if you're working in ___ department or ___. If you're going to be dealing with electronics in either one, it doesn't really matter.

Thanks undefined.

I just got an email back, and like you said, they would fly me to the facility for the interview IF I WAS CHOSEN. (I just sent in my resume, transcript).

What does it mean if I am chosen for an interview? Why would they set up me with these questionnaires if they won't guarantee the position? Kind of weird to get an email back writing "Sorry, you were not selected for an on-site interview" [but we sent you an email earlier that you might be qualified ... ]

I'm kind of stressed about the interview too, if I get it. I hope that since it's an internship interview, the questions would be a bit toned down, and that it would be more loose than the full-time job interview that I have on my mind ..

That's quite common actually. Many companies don't want to waste time interviewing every applicant, so they screen out applicants in a few rounds. First, they'll look at your resume, and pick a handful of those. Then they may send out a questionnaire (in your case), a prescreening phone interview, or an on-campus interview. If you get past this, then they'll interview you on-site. All they're trying to do is to save time and money while finding the most qualified applicant.

Oh I see. Thanks ... I guess my chances are probably less than 5% since probably a handful of people got the same email for the same position, and they're probably choosing one only ... and I'm still young so that's kind of a disadvantages on behalf of experience/skills.
