I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Jacobs (Washington, DC) in Apr 2011
Interview
You must be very persistant. Jacobs is a big company and HR will lose you if possible . Call every day and sometimes twice a day if you get a snif you are inn the running for a Job. It seems like they will put you to work just to keep you from bothering them.
I applied through other source. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Jacobs (London, England) in Mar 2026
Interview
Overall a smooth Process. Really nice staff and good interview questions. more of a conversation than an interview. Type of questions they ask is competency based questions e.g. "think of a time"..etc
Informal discussion asking about experience so far, aspirations, skill sets. Seemed like a pre-screening interview with the hiring managers. Virtual meeting - reasonably informal, polite and professional. Informed about company current projects.
I applied online. I interviewed at Jacobs in Jun 2025
Interview
Easy interview, worst part is the background check, the service they use is really outdated in their process that required me to do a lot of work myself. The service seemed very unorganized
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Typical tell us about times you failed, succeeded, etc.
