I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Mott MacDonald (London, England) in Dec 2017
Interview
3 stage process - online testing and two in-person interviews
The online testing was timed and what you would normally expect. The interview process involved meeting with directors and higher level management staff and then second interview involved meeting with team members. This was mainly to establish whether we would work in a group setting and if the dynamic was right.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Where do you see yourself in five years?
Why Mott MacDonald?
Do you have experience using (software specific to job)?
What was a challenging situation you've faced and how did you overcome it?
How have you made an impact or addressed a problem within your current job?
Very welcoming and friendly. Explained the interview process – strict script as need to standardise questions across candidates. Mix of technical, motivation and strengths-based. Revise their PRIDE values as a lot of questions are based around these.
3 Personal Questions followed by competence based questions. Then there was a period for me to ask questions. The interview was formal and I felt it could have been more personal.

One of the best interviews that I have went through. Very professional and friendly. I did not even feel the time passing. Questions targeted my technical, interpersonal, and soft skills.
