I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Balfour Beatty (London, England) in Dec 2020
Interview
The process went very smoothly. I applied for the Grad Civil role in Leeds but was called by HR asking me if I would consider another role which is rotational to which I said yes. I was out through to the assessment centre which consisted of a group exercise and an interview. The group exercise was nothing unusual and lasted about an hour. Was a bit difficult due to it being virtual but overall fine. The interview was great as well. There's set questions but the interviewer made it feel like we were having a conversation rather than me being interrogated. Mostly just standard questions about why you want to work here. What you know about the team you're applying for. There was also a Q&A with employees who had gone through the process before hand which was helpful.

I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Balfour Beatty (London, England) in Mar 2025
Interview
Kind of long, around 50 mins, first half was them talking about the company and then the other would be about you. We discussed about my motivations and experience and then other stuff that was written in my CV so it's best to know what you have included in that CV. Very approachable and open minded people to have a talk with, certainly helped create a positive mood during the whole interview which was nice.

What are some things that you would/want to improve on?
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Balfour Beatty (Warrington, North West England, England) in Jan 2025
Interview
Briefing-Group Task/Presentation-Break-Interview. The interview was very casual, more like a conversation than an actual interview. They just want to get to know you better. They will ask behavioural/competency based questions as well as 2 technical questions. Overall the interview was a pretty good experience.
