I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at HDR (Akron, OH) in Jan 2015
Interview
the interview went smoothly, the interviewers were very friendly. The questions asked were related to the water classes taken at school (they were looking for a water intern). the interviewers started by describing the opening position and wanted from me to describe myself and show enthusiasm with the company and the opening position. 10 minutes in the end of the interview were left for questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What did you learn from the Water engineering class and what was your biggest constrain
Overall, very professiona and conversational. There were lots of questions regarding skillsets, the previous jobs in the resume, school projects, the process of working, the starting date, etc. About an hour long, with a Q&A towards the end. It extended over the time period, also included a brief firm tour.
Great person very friendly and curious to my work very open and transparent about the company and what they expect from intern in architecture school bachelors level and the project types they were currently doing and planning on working on in the future
