First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Granite Construction.
Project Engineer
I applied online and then got a call from the Talent Acquisition team who then forwarded my resume to the hiring team. After that, I had a virtual interview with a Senior person on the team. It seemed to go well, and they mentioned they were urgently looking for a Project Engineer. I haven't heard back in weeks, and they aren't responding to my emails or phone calls.
- What prompted your departure from your last job?
Project Engineer
Had a chat about my background in school with the construction manager and a project manager. They asked about my work ethic, problem-solving skills, and teamwork. They were really upfront about how demanding the role would be hours-wise, which I thought was good.
- In a team, where do you usually find yourself? Are you the one who focuses on the technical tasks and getting things done, or more of the planner?
- How do you usually fit into a team? Are you the one who is more technical and gets the work done, or more of the strategist?
Engineer
The HR rep emailed me about the summer internship at Granite, and we quickly scheduled the interview. The interview itself was about 20 minutes long and was based entirely on my resume. They asked me to elaborate on my accomplishments.
