PROBUILD Reviews
Reviews by PROBUILD graduate employees
pros
- The people - The support that the team has for each other is amazing. Every team I have worked in has had great comradery. There is always laughter in the office. The pace - I love how fast paced your days are, whilst the hours are long, they fly by. There is always something going on and you are mostly very busy. There is never a dull moment out on site.
- The opportunities made available to distinguish your best qualities. Also having surrounding mentors to teach and help build our construction knowledge.
- Team and the people
- Strong company support, great graduate program, career minded
- Being onsite to see construction processes in practice. Building landmark projects.
cons
- Whilst I enjoy my busy days, it can be very tiring and stressful. Also having to work Saturdays is less than ideal.
- Long hours, as expected in the industry
- Work life balance
- Working long hours and weekends.
- There are many admin/mundane jobs that need to be completed and those usually end up being the tasks for graduates. Some graduates are given far more of these tasks than others and you could be doing a role you dislike for some time.
What insiders say about…
Coordinating subcontractor works, HSE administration and supervision, site supervision, design coordination, program tracking, contract administration
The culture is great and the team environment is very inclusive.
I applied for the job online via the graduate portal. I was then called in for an interview with the leader of the grad program. I was then successful and called into a second interview with the same person. I was then successful and had a third interview with the MD. I was then successful and was required to complete an online psych test prior to offer.
The questions were mainly about my knowledge of the industry and the company, what I want out of the program etc.
The best preparation would be to research the company well, understand the industry you are applying for and show how passionate you are to complete the program and develop yourself.
Work is very flexible if you have sporting commitments, doctors appointments, car service etc. However, the regular hours are long. Generally 7am-5:30/6pm. Often you will also have to work Saturdays.
Starting wage is pretty good.
It varies from site to site but there have been some real shockers re one situation with my manager not providing feedback or performance reviews.
Many internal training programmes are undertaken for safety, quality etc. External training is provided when required, along with any requested training. Many skills have been picked up in all facets of work.
