I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at KPFF (Portland, OR)
Interview
It took about 1-2 phone interviews before the in-person interview could take place. Typical round table interview in which we discussed education background, professional experience, and future goals. All in all it was a good experience and I enjoyed it.
first round interview was with a recruiter who you could tell was just there to write down answers. No conversation just question and then silence as they wrote. Felt awkward and forced.

The first interview was with two HR representatives who provided an overview of the company and the position and asked to hear about my background and experience. The second interview was with two engineers, one junior and one senior, who asked more in-depth questions about my qualifications and what I wanted to do in my career.
