I have an initial recruiter call this Monday for a Cost Manager position with Linesight (supporting their Dallas office), and I’d really appreciate any advice from people who’ve gone through their process or work in similar roles.
Quick background:
• 3 years in Project Controls supporting the Air Force
• 2 years of Earned Value Management (EVM) experience at Lockheed Martin
A couple things I’m trying to prepare for:
1. What kind of questions should I expect from the initial recruiter call?
I’m assuming it’ll be more high-level (experience, background, salary expectations, etc.), but are there any Linesight-specific or cost management-focused questions I should be ready for?
2. The role is listed as “remote” on LinkedIn, but the actual job posting doesn’t clearly confirm if it’s fully remote or tied to the Dallas office.
What’s the best way to professionally confirm whether this is:
• Fully remote
• Hybrid
• Or eventually on-site
I don’t want to come off as overly focused on remote work, but it is an important factor for me.
Any tips on how to position my project controls + EVM background for a Cost Manager role would also be appreciated.
Thank you in advance!
