I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Turner Construction
Interview
The job was posted on our university's career website. I was selected for a personal interview. Interview was behavioral and all questions were common behavioral questions.

Question 1
How would you convince a sub contractor to agree on your opinion?
I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Turner Construction
Interview
Haven't finished the process yet, so I had to mark 'No Offer'
Met a recruiter at a career fair and talked, things went well, and the next morning he called me about setting up a on-campus interview.
Campus interview was with two people, the recruiter I talked with and another employee. They went over my resume and asked standard behavioral questions such as dealing with conflicts and ethics. Interview went very smoothly and they didn't ask cheap questions like what are your weaknesses.
Got a call about 10 days later to set up a second interview, hoping that it will go well! Turner is an excellent company and if you are interviewing you should be excited about the company.

Question 1
Describe a time where you had to resolve a conflict on a job site.
I applied through other source. I interviewed at Turner Construction (New York, NY) in Mar 2013
Interview
I was part of a group of five other potential hires in the interview pool. The interviewers consisted of four Turner employees, each of whom interviewed each individual potential hire personally. The interviewers all came from different departments and positions: one was an HVAC engineer, one was a field engineer, one was an HR manager, one was a vice president.
Each interviewer asked you questions based on their own backgrounds and positions, and you could ask questions of your own based on the interviewer's background. Even though I didn't get the job, I did learn a good deal from some of the interviewers with the questions I asked. The vice president, who interviewed me last, even told me that I had a great interview based on the questions I asked. But I sort of knew that I probably wouldn't get the job because the other potential hires appeared more qualified than me.

Question 1
I had the most problems with the HR manager's questions, because I was more focused on asking construction/engineering-related questions than HR questions.
