Application
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at PCL Construction (Vancouver, BC) in Apr 2022
Interview
There were two interviews. First was a one-way interview through a portal website. The website would display the questions, have a timer, then begin recording you. There were five questions in total, all of which seemed quite general and not about the specific job. After this process, I was contacted again for a live interview through a Microsoft Teams Call. Here, I had a 30-minute call with the interviewer, and the questions were more streamlined toward the specific job.

Question 1
Explain how your school experience and/or professional experience best relates to the position(s) you have applied to.
The interview process was relatively straightforward. At the time, there was an asynchronous online interview portion for which I was contacted for an interview call, which was conducted online due to COVID-19.
