It was a 2-round process, and it went quite smoothly. You'll need to understand project management and challenges from your past learning experiences. Be ready to explain in detail how you manage a big project. Having a PMP certification will be helpful.

Behavioral Technical Presentation

The interview process was quite good, mainly because they needed someone immediately and it went really well. They asked detailed project management questions covering scenarios, processes, and how my current experience aligns with the organization. The general feeling is that they welcome multi-skilled PMs. You'll need to explain the various projects you've managed and how effective your project management was in ensuring timely delivery. Since NCS is a projectized organization, expect questions about staffing projects, documentation, and standards. Given that most projects are government-related, having knowledge and relevant experience in this area would be a plus.

Confirmed questions2 questions
  • Tell me about your past involvement in pre-sales and your experience with government projects.
  • Can you describe your experience in government projects and your involvement in pre-sales in your previous roles?
