Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at The Emirates Group.
Project Manager
Had a phone interview, then a business case exercise, and finished with a presentation. During the presentation, a panel asked questions about my background and how I'd handle a specific scenario relevant to the role. They discussed the company and its challenges quite a bit.
- Describe a time you encountered a challenge.
- Could you share an experience where you faced a significant challenge?
- How would you approach managing a particular scenario relevant to this role?
Project Manager
First, there was an initial interview with a recruitment agency for screening. After passing that, I interviewed with a Senior Project Manager who asked about my experience and the scale of projects I've managed, then recommended me to move forward. The next stage involved a case study presentation to a panel of Senior Project Managers and HR executives.
- Could you explain why teleconferencing wouldn't be suitable for a Project Steering Group or Kick-off meeting?
Project Manager
The job posting had all the info and expectations. The HR person was barely involved; the line managers and technical/domain heads made the decisions. It was a thorough process with several steps, which was good because it helped us identify what we might have overlooked before and gave us plenty of chances to show our experience and skills. However, ultimately, it depends on the people you meet on the day.
- Can you describe a unique contribution you made to a project where you handled multiple responsibilities?
