      Environmental Engineer IV Interview

      Easy interview

      Application

      The process took 1 week. I interviewed at CDM Smith

      Interview

      Interview was a series of 5 back to back meetings, 20-30 min each, with 1-2 interviewers. This allowed a good chance to converse with each interviewer and get a feel for them, and presumably for them to do the same, but ended up covering a lot of the same ground multiple times. Interview was entirely non-technical, and instead focused on past experience, needs for the current position and a few "standard interview"-type questions per interviewer (each interviewer had a sheet of typical questions that appeared to have been sent out by HR that many selected one or two questions from, in addition to the general discussion of past experience, etc). Interviewers included hiring manager, likely direct supervisor for the position, a few people tangentially related to the position (geologists, water treatment engineer (position was for remediation engineering) and a more senior mid-level engineer).

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Most questions related to past experience and technical background (without asking technical questions) What are you really looking for in a job? Tell me about a time you disagreed with your boss, and how you resolved it. What is your greatest weakness?
