The interview process consisted of 4 steps. The first was a screening with HR, this was pretty straightforward and they asked basic questions regarding eligibility. The second step was to complete the BCMT (Bennett Mechanical Comprehension Test). Do a few practice problems online and you will know what to expect. Straightforward yet again. The third step was the digital interview. Unlike other digital interviews, this was easier since the questions were available to you beforehand. Also, you could upload videos instead of having to record them during a set time. This was convenient. The final round consisted of a interview with engineers, technical sales people, and HR.

The interview questions were straightforward along with a discussion. Tell me about yourself. What attracted you to the position of Keyence and why did you choose this company? What are your short term and long term career plans?
You do a mock sales pitch and then go into a final interview straight after. They prepare you for the mock sales pitch by giving a packet with information on the product and you try to sell to another sales rep.

They asked me very strange questions that had little to do with the job and made me tell them every employer i was interviewing for and who i had offers for.

Colloquio
Began with Technical Assessment- very basic physics Q's
After passing technical assessment, the next step was a two-part process bundled together, a HireVue online interview and a Caliper personality test (recruiter told me that only 10% make it past this stage).
After passing second stage, I was flown into a "Career Day" interview in Chicago, IL. This lasted all day (7am-5pm), and was grueling. Began with a group strategy meeting where a group of applicants were asked to discuss solutions to a sales scenario, then moved onto a sales role-play and product demonstration, and the day concluded with the final interview. The product demonstration required weeks of preparation, and had a Q&A session with the hiring managers.
I left Career Day frustrated, as the process was intense and required complete focus leading up to the interviews, and I felt that my qualifications and performance within a technical major (Mechanical Engineering) were not respected.
While the job description may highlight the technical nature of the position, you are much better off as a suave marketing/sales type.
