Grimshaw-Architects Interview Questions

Application

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Grimshaw-Architects (New York, NY (US)) in June 2017.

Interview

Applied through a friend. Received an interview, which was casual but professional. The interviewer was interested in my work and what my plans were. I haven't heard back from them yet.

Application

I applied online. The process took 4+ weeks. I interviewed at Grimshaw-Architects (New York, NY (US)) in February 2016.

Interview

First off, when I applied they responded within 48 hours. Initially I assumed that was a great sign. I entered the building with confidence as I was interviewed by two people simultaneously (one from HR). After 40minutes of discussion, I was told to send a follow-up email with information and they would contact me if I matched the requirements within two weeks. Well I did just that, however, its been over a month and no response. Gee, thanks. I would've even appreciated a rejection, however, they lack human morale.

Application

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Grimshaw-Architects (New York, NY (US)) in November 2014.

Interview

I had a phone interview followed by an in-person interview with two Associate Principals. They both asked different questions and seemed at odds with each other, with lots of interruptions and funny looks. We talked over my portfolio and the work I specialize in.

Interview

Worked hard to send an application in but received a reply just 4 hours later saying they would 'not be moving forward.'
This was sent at 10PM on a Friday night just after I sent the application so clearly they have some sort of automated filter which makes no sense.

Application

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Grimshaw-Architects (London, England).

Interview

The process to get me in for an interview was quick (3 working days from sending my CV to being interviewed). Interview conducted by the CFO and Financial Controller in the London office, which was nice looking.

Interview was focused on my work experience and mostly competency based questions. After which I was given an excel based aptitude test; and this is where I taught this was a joke, as it was super easy.

In the end, the feedback was that they had no doubt about my competency and ability to do the job but concerned about my history of not staying long enough in previous jobs (minimum one year 2 months). Which makes me question why waste everyone's time when my CV clearly provided this information in the first place?
