In the aerospace, defense, space, and security playgrounds that Boeing operates in, technology is changing at a rapid pace. While your interviewer can tell a lot about your experiences by looking at your resume, they want to hear you talk firsthand about how you can adapt to new and changing technologies.

Think of a time you had to learn new technology and ensure that your example proves your ability to study, learn, and master its use in short order. Then, explain to your interviewing team that you know you will be learning many new technologies in this role at Boeing and that you are willing and ready to be a great learner of any new technologies thrown your way on the job.

"First and foremost, I want you to know that I understand that I need to embrace the ever-evolving technology that you work with on a daily basis. I've always been enamored by great technological advancements over the years. Over the last two years in my current role, we've shifted and grown our manufacturing lines to produce kevlar and aluminum products, and these new product lines brought many technological changes that I had to learn. As we implemented the new equipment and processes, I became a student once again so I could hit the ground running from day one when manufacturing started. I asked questions and requested as much hands-on training as I could get."
