The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Gensler (New York, NY) in Oct 2024
Interview
typical one hour interview, asking to present portfolio. nothing different. easy. Asked when I am available - offer a week later. Onboarding and HR were super helpful and to the point - very efficient.
Application screening took forever. Interviews were performed multiple times and studios that were interested in finding out about the applicants were sometimes not in one meeting. Nothing special as an architectural firm interviews.
