I applied online. The process took 8 months. I interviewed at AECOM (Orange, CA) in Dec 2022
Interview
The hiring manager was very responsive, and the interviewees were accommodating to my time. Although the interview was virtual, there was still a strong sense of professionalism and connection between the two managers and me.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They had asked basic questions regarding CEQA/NEPA and planning and had asked the standard questions on weaknesses, strengths, and adaptiveness, One thing that stood out with this interview from previous ones, was their interest on my professional goals and personality. Overall, they wanted to know the type of employee I am, my preferred management style, and professional goals. Technical questions based on CEQA/NEPA were more on where to look for information, how to research, what to do when you don't know an issue etc. They also asked about personality traits as AECOM tends to hire people who like to volunteer and network.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at AECOM (Edison, NJ) in Feb 2018
Interview
Long interview process. Multiple phone interviews, and then had to travel for an evening mixer and in-person interview the next day after the mixer. The company doesn't really seem to value the individual and is just looking out for itself.
