Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at WSP.
Electrical Engineer
I had an hour-long call with some of the current employees. They didn't ask a ton of technical questions, which was a bit strange since the role itself is technical, not just engineering. Overall, the interview felt pretty easy, but I'm not entirely sure what they were looking for in an intern.
- Basic behavioral questions, for example, why are you interested in WSP?
- Tell me about yourself.
- What are your interests?
Graduate Electrical Engineer
The interview process was pretty much focused on my resume. They had me explain the engineering project I listed. Then, they asked about the courses I took in school that related to the job. I talked about those and went into more detail about what I did and how it connected to the role. After that, they discussed the position more and asked a few 'get to know me' questions.
- Could you elaborate on the engineering project from your resume?
- Regarding the courses you've taken, can you detail your learnings in [Course Name] and its relevance to this job?
- Can you tell us more about the position itself?
Electrical Engineer
The interviewer was nice and communicated well, everything went fine. I didn't get the offer because my experience wasn't quite what they were looking for. I applied in early Jan and got a call in Feb. The interviewer then sent my application to another department that seemed like a better fit for my background.
- Do you have a driver's license?
- Are you a graduate?
