I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Gensler in Mar 2022
Interview
The actual interview process was really nice and the people were really nice. The negative part of this is dealing with HR and talent acquisition specialists.
They don't respond to emails or calls. I'm sure there are thousands of people being ghosted, and thousands of people call them to get a response. They promise a response if they will proceed with an offer or reject you. Nothing happened. I turned down job offers waiting for this firm. Its crazy how unprofessional this company is. These are all red flags.
online meeting with studio director, talked in mandarin, quick introduction for the portfolio and some simple questions like your strengths and what could you bring to the company, got the offer the other day,
I applied in-person. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Gensler (Los Angeles, CA) in Oct 2025
Interview
Typical architecture interview process that took a few weeks with a series of interviews with various project team members. I felt like things could have moved along faster but overall good experience.
Professional, respectful, friendly, and they are genuinely interested to understand your skills and your goals in your career. Took two rounds of interview. HR was also professional and swift in replies
