I applied online. I interviewed at Jacobs (Houston, TX) in Oct 2018
Interview
The initial interview took place over the phone with the regional and district manager. Gave great overview of the company and the site project. It was the traditional questions you would expect i.e. what would you do in this situation, what is your leadership style, how would you handle/manage a direct report with more experience, etc.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you handle a situation with a difficult employee with repeated violations of company policies?
How much experience do you have managing managers?
I applied through other source. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Jacobs (London, England) in Mar 2026
Interview
Overall a smooth Process. Really nice staff and good interview questions. more of a conversation than an interview. Type of questions they ask is competency based questions e.g. "think of a time"..etc
Informal discussion asking about experience so far, aspirations, skill sets. Seemed like a pre-screening interview with the hiring managers. Virtual meeting - reasonably informal, polite and professional. Informed about company current projects.
I applied online. I interviewed at Jacobs in Jun 2025
Interview
Easy interview, worst part is the background check, the service they use is really outdated in their process that required me to do a lot of work myself. The service seemed very unorganized
