What advice would you give to someone applying to this role?
The application process across all streams is about competency questions. Just have lots of examples of working in a team, leading, diversity etc. Subject specific questions are quite general. You just need to know the issues such as failure modes, construction techniques etc. You won't need to draw a bending moment diagram or anything like that.
Do you have any interview tips?
Read up on what TfL have built lately and how. Flick through retaining walls and bridge construction before the interview. You need to show that you are specifically interested in TfL and London. Do not worry too much about the technical questions - for the most part you are having to convince HR so it's a tick box exercise.
Phone interview is probably the most difficult - just make sure you keep your answers concise and to the point. It's a tick box excercise for the interviewer.
The whole thing is quite impersonal - as long as you tick the right boxes you have a very good chance.
