I first chatted with EMJ's recruiting company on the phone. The recruiter, Lauren, was super nice and asked me more about architecture/design than admin stuff. She emailed me super fast, like within an hour, to set up a 15-minute chat with the Office Admin. Later that day, Lauren called me back and asked me to come in for another interview with the Executive Vice President. Both interviews were pretty straightforward with easy questions. The interviewers were both friendly and mostly talked about C2C and how the company cares about its employees.

The interview process involved three phone calls and then two in-person interviews. The first in-person interview was with the VP of construction, where I was asked several technical questions. The second round was a lunch meeting with a senior superintendent and a senior project manager, who focused on my personal background, strengths, and job site preferences.

You'll have three interviews. First up is an hour-long chat with a VP where you'll get the lowdown on the company and how you'd fit in. Then, you'll have two 30-minute interviews with either PMs or Estimators, depending on who's around and what you're applying for. These chats will dive deeper into the company and the specifics of the role.
