I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at AtkinsRéalis (Toronto, ON) in Feb 2022
Interview
Very efficient process - the hiring managers made informed decisions based on a potential employee's previous work experience and certifications. Their decision making was the fastest I have ever seen with any company
Knowledge based interview with two long form questions to answer. Given 5 minutes to think about each then present and talk through your answers. It wasn't about being right it was about being logical
