Entrevista
I had two online video interviews (Microsoft Teams) before I was given my offer. My first interview was with two senior acoustic engineers and it lasted 90 mins. The interview was split into three stages (why you want to Mott Macdonald, technical knowledge, and strength-based questions). The questions were read from a script and the interviewers were restricted from helping too much when I got stuck on some technical questions. The second 1-hour interview was with two technical directors. This interview was more conversational and enjoyable than the first one. Prior to the interview, I was given a week to prepare a 20 min technical presentation about assessing noise in highway projects, which I then had to present during the interview. After the presentation, I had to answer some technical and strength-based questions.
