For the HNTB interview, I had two rounds. The first round was pretty basic, focusing on my resume and expertise. They picked individual projects from my resume and asked about my specific contributions. The second round was a tough technical interview. They presented a questionnaire, and I had to answer each question within a set time. The first interview lasted 30 minutes, and the second was an hour.
