Interview
I got a phone interview first that consisted of basic recruitment questions like why Jacobs, what is my experience, education and availability.
The second interview was with two employees, one managing director and a director. It was more of a discussion, they told me it was because they were expanding their advisory team. They asked my interests and projects at my firm (at the time) and what my long term goal was. There no tests, trick questions nor assessment. This interview was different from other Jacobs position because it was a consultant role and not an engineering role. The focus was my financial consulting knowledge, especially in infrastructure. Maybe because I applied as an experienced hire from a competing firm that I did not have any case studies or "gotcha" moments.
