I applied online. I interviewed at Wood & Grieve Engineers in Aug 2019
Interview
The interview took place at the office and the interviewer was the Administration Manager. It was more like a conversation rather than a strict interview with prepared questions, which made it feel very relaxed but yet professional. Since both the interviewer and I early during the interview realised the position was not the right fit for me, we started talking more about other possibilities and the future of the company. Therefore, there were not really any prepared interview questions.

I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Wood & Grieve Engineers (Brisbane)
Interview
The interview was very relaxed - I felt comfortable speaking with the employer. No really hard questions. They care a lot about your social skills/activities and how you will fit into their culture. The initial question focused on my studies and my academic achievements. However, for the most part, we were mainly talking about what I did outside of study (eg. soccer, gym).
