While some employers require a certain number of years of experience in construction before working as a Construction Superintendent, others require a bachelor's degree in construction management, engineering, or construction science. The interviewer wants to hear about the educational background you have that has prepared you for a career in this industry.

Avoid saying you have the required educational background needed for the position if you do not. The interviewer will ask for copies of your degree or official transcripts to verify your information. If you are dishonest in your interview, you will be disqualified as a candidate.

"Two years ago, I received my Bachelor's Degree in Construction Management from Boise State University. After obtaining my degree, I was accepted into a year-long internship with Boise Custom Home Builders, where I received hands-on training in all aspects of working as a Construction Superintendent. I am also certified in construction estimating, construction scheduling, and cost control, making me a qualified candidate for your company."
