Candidate-reported interview process

Applied online and got an interview date after a couple of weeks. Received an email and confirmed the meeting time and date with Project Managers and HR for a face-to-face interview.

The interview was technical and focused on fundamentals. They asked about all the basic calculation methodologies for HVAC calculations. The focus was more on the approach than the correct answers. Situation-based questions were also asked.

It was pretty efficient and they gave good info. It usually takes a couple steps and can drag on a bit. They give you the details about the job and what you'd be doing. Typically, there's one chat with HR and then one with the manager.
