Hi there!

I am in the process of applying for a graduate scheme as a nuclear engineer in some company. This company accepts graduates from electrical, mechanical engineering, physics etc. I myself will soon obtain M.Sc. in Engineering Physics.
In one of the stages I will have to go through a technical interview. I was wondering if you experienced such interview and could tell me the questions you were asked. I am especially interested in answers of people that applied for a nuclear engineering position.

Thank you
John
