"My clear preference in methodologies, when it comes to project management in construction would be Waterfall. Waterfall project management is the most commonly used technique in construction; therefore, I am most familiar with it. It is more traditional being milestone focused and systematic. I find Waterfall to be best for projects that are highly sequential by nature. I find Agile great for breaking down project tasks that may not fit so stringently into Waterfall. Agile also opens the door to conversations around continual improvement. With Scrum being ideal for very small teams, I have not had much exposure to its use. It's a 'short sprint' approach, making it generally unsuitable for long-term projects in the construction industry. Could you share with me the project management methodology preferred within this company?"
