First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Dahlin Group Architecture Planning.
Project Manager
First, I had an online interview with my potential direct supervisor and a company executive. It was pretty conversational and they got straight to the point about my past work and what the company does and expects. A few days later, HR called me for a short follow-up phone interview.
- Tell me about a time you dealt with conflict.
Job Captain
I actually got my interview by chance. I went to a Job Fair at California College of the Arts to meet with a few firms I had been talking to about joining their teams. While waiting to meet with them, I saw a past classmate of mine and we got to talking about old times. He introduced me to his colleague and we had a relaxed conversation about where I was at in my career and what my plans were for the future. From this chance meeting, I got an interview with Dahlin Group. We then set up a more formal 1:1 interview for that week. It was relaxed and comfortable. I was sold, and the process went from an accidental encounter to me wanting to work for them.
- The questions felt more like a conversation about architecture and design.
Architect
It was in depth and informative on both ends. It was casual but engaging and I felt it was easy to see that we were clicking in our conversation. We reviewed my portfolio and we went through each project and talked about what I specifically did in group projects and I was connecting what was in my portfolio to the type of work they do.
- What is your sustainability agenda and how do you see yourself promoting sustainability at our firm?
Office Coordinator
Applied and interviewed a few days later. As someone with a decade of experience, my advice: Look elsewhere, don't waste your time. The newer staff have high turnover due to older management who aren't the most approachable or transparent and the pay isn't even competitive.
- Tell me what you know about Dahler and why you think you'd fit in here.
