The interviewer asks this question to see if you have the experience required to work as a Construction Superintendent. The interviewer wants to hear how many years of experience you have and what type of experience (residential, commercial, or both). The company will put the experience required or preferred in the job description.

If you are interviewing for a Construction Superintendent position with a residential construction company, focus on highlighting your expertise in that specific industry. Then, you can add any other experience you have as a Construction Superintendent in another sector, such as commercial building.

If the job posting says the company is looking for a Construction Superintendent with a minimum number of years in the industry, avoid saying you have that number of years of experience if you do not. The interviewer will call your references to determine how long you have been working as a Construction Superintendent, and you do not want to be dishonest.
