I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Ramboll (London, England) in Mar 2017
Interview
30 mn phone interview, asked questions about my interest in the position, why I chose this field, my studies, my coursework and a few competency based questions (what would i do if I have difficulties carrying out a task, teamwork etc.) At the end, I was invited to a face to face interview in their London offices, a week later. I was subsequently contacted by email and offered with several time slots over two days. The interview laster for one hour and was quite informal

Question 1
What qualities do you think you have that will be useful in your role as an EIA coordinator (in coordinating teams)? Where do you see yourself in 3 to 5 years? What specialism are you interested in? Why London? (the office I was interviewing for) Do you always want to work for a consultancy?
I applied online. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Ramboll in Feb 2023
Interview
Presentation by some staff members, followed by a group activity (teams of 6) in which we were given a scenario. The scenario was that we were on a raft in the sea and had a list of 15 items, and had to rank them in terms of usefulness, then present as a team why we had ranked them in that way. After a provided lunch we then had individual interviews with 2 staff members which lasted 30 minutes. This seemed a bit short to me. The questions were very sustainability based and they encouraged/provided guidance throughout. Was quite informal although I did wonder how it was relevant to the job as I was interviewing for a water quality/contaminated land position and have not studied sustainability.
