Intern Reviews
- “My team leader has been extremely flexible and accommodating as a college student. Working during the school year was a great experience, but my boss made it very clear that academics come first and that I should be prioritizing school. This made it very easy to be comfortable with my work/life balance.”
- “Professional and Inclusive environment throughout the whole company's corporate center.”
- “I feel that the people here are great, and the number of hours isn't any different than any previous job that I have had. I also like how I am able to have a work/life balance because in my position I do not need to come into work during off hours.”
- “Within my first month here, I was able to get into the field to meet crews and was invited to a baseball game with my team. I am very satisfied with how flexible my hours are each day, where can choose when I want to start my day.”
Getting Hired Here
- “I think the interview process is quite good, as there is only one very in-depth interview, and the interviewers were all engineers that I am currently working with.”
- “The interview process was very easy to go through. I was glad to also be actually interviewed by the people I was going to be reporting to not just HR like some other companies. The interview was more than just about skill requirements, it also gauged soft skills and collaboration.”
- “I submitted a resume, scheduled my interview, and then received a response in a timely manner. I felt comfortable during the interview and the questions I was asked seemed to be roughly the same questions as I have been asked in other interviews.”
- “Interviewers were my future superiors, felt like I was picked for the job by people who knew what they wanted in an intern. Only one interview, which was nice for timing.”
