      Graduate Civil Engineer Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Balfour Beatty (London, England) in Mar 2025

      Interview

      Kind of long, around 50 mins, first half was them talking about the company and then the other would be about you. We discussed about my motivations and experience and then other stuff that was written in my CV so it's best to know what you have included in that CV. Very approachable and open minded people to have a talk with, certainly helped create a positive mood during the whole interview which was nice.
