So there were a few phone screens first, then an in-person interview that was a panel setup. They asked questions in a round-robin style, mostly focusing on my past experience, management approaches, and how I'd deal with different client and customer relationship scenarios.

Technical Other

Interviews usually last about 30 minutes to an hour. For engineering and design jobs, there are often technical questions and you'll have to look at drawings. The interviews are pretty specific to the job, and many include skills tests. If you're really right for the job, the skills tests and technical questions shouldn't be a big problem.

Submitted an application online and got contacted for an interview about 1-2 weeks later. After the interview, I waited for references to be checked. Received the offer about 1-2 weeks after that. The whole process was quite quick compared to other places.
