Application Process & Interviews at Fulton Hogan NZ

Three interviews, was nice as it was slightly different to normal interviews.

I applied online for the graduate programme, I then got a face to face interview with the regional manager. Eventually I heard back via email that I got into the programme.

Good interview process and HR communicate well, regularly communicating through phone and email. Interview process involved one-way video, graduate assessment centre (speed interviews, group project and presentation) and face-to-face interview with the hiring managers.

I applied for the job and got a call from HR team for an interview within 2 weeks. got interviewed by 2 managers

The interview basically describe the role that I was interviewed for, going through contract and reviewing my CV.

It was a group introduction with an individual interview. The hiring process was quick. The assessment was a general problem solving task of building a tower with paper, tape, sticks etc.

I think the process is good, but the comms to the other teams to organise PPE, vehicles, laptops, inductions etc. could be more efficient. It is common for someone to start and there be nothing prepared for them to be able to start work when they arrive.

Was good, didn't really have to do much.

Phoned me up to discuss my interests when I was studying and asked if I am still interested in the role.

Well structured and clearly communicated

I was a scholarship hire so I didn't go through the hiring process, and I can't really comment.

Straightforward but very well structured. I enjoyed mine interview.
