There are a total of 2 rounds of interviews. The first one is phone screening by HR, and the second one is by two designers and one technical architect. They ask me to go through my portfolio.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Gensler (Washington, DC)
Interview
Very laid back and approachable. Gensler prided themselves on being easy going, personable and “approachable” professionals. Chatted through portfolio, questions were more on interests/strengths rather than experience and portfolio. Pretty straightforward interview, no tricks.
