I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at DMA Engineering (Golden, CO) in May 2021
Interview
The hiring process with DMA Engineering--from resume submission to offer letter--was 20 days in an industry that, on average, takes 60 days to fill positions. The process included an initial phone screening, a team interview over Zoom, and an on-site interview with the company’s principle, Steven Forrester.
At the end of each interview, I was given clear and definitive timelines for next steps. The process was thorough for all involved. I was able to interview the company as well as they to dialogue extensively with me.
While interviewing is always a bit nerve-racking for job applicants, this interview team was extremely responsive, which put me at ease between touchpoints. The three-part interview process offered me a transparent preview of DMA's work ethic, standards for excellence, personalities, and company culture.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Initial interview questions included questions on personal philosophies (which matters in a company focused on sustainability), interests in the position and why, experiences from previously held positions as they relate to the open position at DMA, and a review of the job description and role expectations.
The second interview included a lot of questions which began as "tell us about a time when..." The third interview allowed for clarification on previous dialogue and outstanding questions, plus a recap of the vision, expectations, and benefits that both parties brought to the table.
