So first there was a 30 min phone call. Then, they took me out for lunch and it was a panel interview. The panel interview was a really great experience overall. They were really professional and made me feel comfortable right away, but they still asked important questions.

We had 3 interviews in 1 day, then a site visit. First interview was with a project manager, second with a superintendent, and the third with an executive. After that, we had lunch and then went to a site. The site visit was very thorough and detailed, but it gave a good sense of what the day-to-day would be like.

So for the VDC Engineer job, it's like a few steps. They really want to check if you know your stuff technically, how you handle problems, and if you can work well with the construction crew. Since VDC is a big deal now, they need to make sure you can blend tech, project management, and what happens on-site.

Behavioral Technical

The interview process was very straightforward and the company does not allow room for misunderstandings or a sense of being undervalued. I sought out the company through my school's networking opportunities and they reached out. They accommodate parking and allocated a 2 hour window for the interview process to be thorough. I highly suggest researching the company roles and services. Use proper language and key words that pertain to the company. They are looking for people who demonstrate a want to be part of their legacy and will take pride in their work.
