I had an interview with them a while back ago. They said they liked my design work, but needed to show more technical work. I didn't have that in my portfolio at that time. I just moved on.
@BulgarBlogger which office did you interview with if you don't mind me asking? And by technical work, do you mean proven computer skills? And how long did it take for them to get back to you with a decision after the interview?
but yeah if anyone who has gotten the job in the past it would be great to look at an online portfolio for future reference, would be appreciated...and good luck to the rest of you still waiting to hear back
I just applied couple days ago... Is there any internal voice about the Rotterdam internship vacancies? How long did they get back to you after you submitted the online application? I heard they have very limited spots for Non-EU citizens, but not sure if that's true.
It means you're a "maybe." They are getting through other candidates first but you are still in the running. They'll hire exceptional right away but dont be discouraged. You still have a shot!
@arkitex I believe they get back to you with a yes or no. So, you will know regardless. And the 'typical' time they get back to you is between 4 to 6 weeks. However, reading other forums, the time varies greatly. Anyone willing to sharing their >4mb portfolio package?
can anyone please tell me whats the last date for applying for the internship?

There's no particular date. OMA hires interns on an as-needed/as-openings-arise basis, until they fill spots. Usually by February they're actively interviewing for spots opening in the summer. Right now they're only advertising internships for Rotterdam, and only for people with availability of 6 months minimum. You can always apply even when they're not actively recruiting, but you shouldn't necessarily expect a reply. Right now of course is not the most favorable hiring climate, but it doesn't hurt to try.
OMA interviews (2014)
just wondering if anyone has interviewed recently and if they heard back? this goes to rotterdam, doha, ny, hk
..anybody?
i interviewed back in february and still haven't gotten a response....is there a connection between interview date and when you'd get a response?
anyone know how long it usually takes for them to make a decision? this is for a long term internship
yeah still no response. they probably do all their decisions at once. which location did you apply to?
Is it so hard to get an internship at OMA?
@lataco I would assume that it is. at least from what I've been reading from past forums. It's my first time applying. did you apply as well?

I applied to all of them but RD got back to me for an interview..
but it's been over 3 weeks. Don't know what that means..
One of my friend got offer from OMA last week . I dont know which office he applied. Anyway, He did interview last week and got a job following day.
The next day?? Yikes......
is he an arch graduate student?
And did he interview for an internship or an architect position?
@Liam Kwon Congrats to your friend! hope the rest of us hear good news soon as well..
Yeb. He is graduate student and applied architectural intern.
Don be nervous. Just have a good time. At least you guys grab the interview chance from "OMA", which means your portfolio deserve to work in OMA.
thanks man...hope RD responds soon. anyone out there with more info please share!
For those of you that have had interviews/ gotten the job do you have an online portfolio that I could see?
just heard back folks...
unfortunately it's not good news..
but yeah if anyone who has gotten the job in the past it would be great to look at an online portfolio for future reference, would be appreciated...and good luck to the rest of you still waiting to hear back
@bleedarch
Sorry to hear that! But at least you can move on while the rest of us still wait for answers. I wonder if it's possible to contact them to find out?
Anyone else?
After submitting the material, how long did they get back to you. 4 to 6 weeks?
Good luck everyone!
The good part about not getting accepted at OMA is that, at least you have a life now!
I just applied couple days ago... Is there any internal voice about the Rotterdam internship vacancies? How long did they get back to you after you submitted the online application?
I heard they have very limited spots for Non-EU citizens, but not sure if that's true.
I received a phone call from Rotterdam office several days ago, and was asked to have an interview this Thursday.
I also wonder what's percentage of chance to get in after the interview....
Anyway, let's see
@xdfwx Good luck dude. When did you submitted your application? and where do you go to school?
It means you're a "maybe." They are getting through other candidates first but you are still in the running. They'll hire exceptional right away but dont be discouraged. You still have a shot!
