      Civil Engineer Interview

      Sep 27, 2021
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at HDR

      Interview

      The process was pretty normal with regular questions. It went well, they seemed nice, and I was offered a position. The position was to relocate, but only offered me $3K higher than my current salary (and $7K under my asking salary). I sent an email to negotiate salary closer to my asking. The HR rep said they will look into it and get back to me. They never got back to me. I thought this was quite unprofessional, but I sent a follow up email in case something happened or someone was on holidays... this was also ignored. I ended up defaulting the offer since my timeline to accept timed out. I felt quite disrespected and I would've preferred a reply even if the answer was no. Overall I know this is a big company and it wouldn't be fair to judge it as a whole based on my experiences with a few employees, but for me this was not a great experience.

      I interviewed at HDR (Boston, MA)

      Interview

      Really good and transparent. Good at answering questions and was very transparent. It just took a little bit of time to get results back (about 2 weeks). Good company culture and opportunities for young engineers
