Interview Preparation Tips

Interview preparation tips for other job seekers - AECOM was an excellent company to work for a few years ago. However, it currently focuses primarily on hiring professionals who work at the behest of the respective clients. Once employed, there is rarely any connection with the company. They retain a significant portion, up to 50%, of the client's billing amount and pay you the remainder. Furthermore, they offer minimal or no salary increments after you join. Therefore, it is advisable to negotiate the highest possible remuneration during the initial hiring process.
