Entretien
I applied online after having toured the office with my graduate school class. I was emailed about a phone interview about a month after submitting my application. The phone interview was 30 minutes long, pretty general questions, nothing technical. Then two days later I got another email asking me to come in for an in-person interview.
I came in for the in-person interview a week later. It was a three hour long interview that began by me giving a 30 minute presentation on a technical topic of my choice, then a 30 minute casual 1 on 1 interview with a principle in the structures group, he was really nice and fairly laid back. After that came another man, an associate, who was equally friendly and welcoming. I got a small 8 question test to complete in 30 minutes (it only took about 10 and was really easy). After the test we talked 1 on 1 about my answers and then had our own interview. Finally another associate came in and him and I also had a 1 on 1 interview, however this was mostly him telling me about Arup's culture to make sure I actually thought I would like working there. He emphasized how the work is very diverse, the group is very tight nit and works together a lot.

Question 1
For the test, know statics, beam deflections, and simple structural design topics such as where to put tension steel in a RC frame.
For the interview questions, think about times you've worked on something technical and how you solved the problem. Think about what you've done outside of school. Think about what kind of structural engineer you want to be, what you want to do in your career.

Online video interview. Asked to record 1:30 minute responses to 3 questions. Given time to plan answers and re-record if necessary. Questions were very general about why the job offer appeals to you
Applied online in October and then got invited to a virtual assessment centre that happened in December. The online application was pretty straightforward. The virtual assessment centre was a whole day type of thing, it consisted of a technical interview with two panelists, a competency based interview, and then a case study.
