Just remember, not every question has an answer. Many questions are being asked to assess your problem solving skills, deductive reasoning, etc. If you walk it thru logically and can't get what you think is the correct answer or your unsure, just say it..."I've walked thru the problem in a logical manner, but I'm not arriving at my view of a correct answer...i can continue or would you like to move on"....don't loose your cool.

Don't dig yourself into a hole by trying to bs them. If you don't know the answer to a question, just say so, but hopefully you can also say you know where to find the answer.

And if you fly in for the interview, pay attention to what kind of plane you're on.. They may ask, and want to gauge your interest in their industry

Which program and facility are you interviewing at? I have 9 years at Boeing, mostly in Sea Launch Payload Operations and Orbiter test labs.

A few words of advice about Boeing. The yearly raises suck so make SURE they give you a GREAT salary coming in. They might BS you with one of those, lets get you in the door and then we will hook you up in a year lines. DON"T buy it. AS much as you want to, don't. The rate management changes around here by the time you are due for a hookup a new manager is in town and he was not party to your deal. If it is not in writing, it MEANS NOTHING.

If you get me the Req # and what not I can get you the "insider" payscale they can consider so you know how high you can go. All jobs have a min-max range in Boeing.

i think this link is not free but:
http://www.vault.com/careertopics/careertopiclist.jsp

from an engineering publication but some info:
http://eet.tech-engine.com/

i would say read all versions of the job description, if you know any of the names you wil be talking to look them up on the internet.

best of luck!
