I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Arup Laboratories in Jan 2026
Interview
Took a couple days for a talent acquisition specialist to get in contact with me after I submitted my application. Had a phone call interview with the talent acquisition specialist. Basic questions like what do you know about ARUP, what's your job history, education, etc. Took about 15 min. After that you have an interview with a manager and a lead. About 20 behavioral/situational questions like tell me a time you had a disagreement with a coworker or tell me a time you failed and how did you handle it. After the interview you get a lab tour. Took about 1-2 hours total. Takes about 1-2 weeks for the hiring process and an additional 2 weeks to get hired on. My recommendation is to research the company beforehand, arrive on time, and to practice mock interviews with another person.

I applied online. I interviewed at Arup Laboratories (Salt Lake City, UT) in May 2015
Interview
They ask you basic questions. Questions vary because this company consists of different labs. They will also ask how you work under pressure since it's a very stressful job.it would take about two weeks to hear back from the interview and the hiring process takes about a month.

Interview
The process took weeks between submitting my application and receiving a call. After an initial phone interview things happened quickly. I interviewed with multiple supervisors in one interview and received multiple offers only a few days after the interview.
