Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Mace.
Planning Manager
The interview process had two stages. The first was a Teams call with technical questions and a behavioral assessment, pretty standard. The second stage was a 1:1 interview at the site. I really enjoyed the interview and got along very well with the panel. I declined due to personal reasons.
- Can you describe the project lifecycle sequence for a system from start to finish?
Senior Manager
Communication breakdown after initial phase of enquiring about role. Requesting for an update needs to be streamlined or for an automatic notification to inform unsuccessful candidates after a set time period.
- Tell me about your relevant experience over the past five years.
Design Manager
The interview started with a friendly introduction to Mace and the interviewer. Then, I was asked questions to gauge my understanding of the role, my skills and experiences, my motivation for applying, and how I could contribute to Mace. These questions led to deeper discussions about topics like sustainability and the career prospects at Mace, with the interviewer sharing their own experiences. I also asked questions, which extended the interview and naturally opened the floor for more questions from the interviewer.
- Tell me about a time you faced a significant challenge and how you overcame it.
- What is your understanding of this Design Manager role?
- Could you walk me through your relevant skills and past experiences?
