About your past

Tell me about an electrical project from class or on your own that you are proud of. What did you design, and what went wrong along the way?

What they are checking: Whether they have hands-on experience and can talk honestly about debugging, which matters more than a perfect result.

Tell me about a time you had to learn a new tool or software quickly to finish a project.

What they are checking: Whether they can ramp up on their own, since an intern will meet unfamiliar tools in the first weeks.

Describe a team project where someone was not pulling their weight. How did you handle it?

What they are checking: Whether they address problems directly and stay focused on the result rather than blame.

What part of electrical engineering do you want to explore during this internship, and why?

What they are checking: Whether they have a real interest that can guide how their project is assigned.

What would you do

You are working near a test cell with live high-voltage equipment. What safety habits would you follow?

What they are checking: Whether they respect electrical hazards and lockout practices, which a power equipment company will not compromise on.

Your mentor is busy and you are stuck on a task. What do you do?

What they are checking: Whether they try reasonable steps on their own and then ask clear questions instead of spinning or going silent.

How would you document your work so the next person can pick it up after your internship ends?

What they are checking: Whether they think about leaving useful work behind, which separates strong interns from average ones.

About the work

Rehlko makes generators, transfer switches and power conversion equipment. What do you know about how a standby generator takes over when grid power fails?

What they are checking: Whether they are curious enough about the product to have learned the basics before the interview.

Explain the difference between single-phase and three-phase power in plain language.

What they are checking: Whether their coursework fundamentals are solid enough to apply on real power equipment.

How would you use a multimeter or oscilloscope to track down why a circuit board is not working?

What they are checking: Whether they troubleshoot methodically instead of swapping parts at random.
