I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Octopus Energy (London, England) in June 2021
Interview
Applied online with a short application form. A recruiter then phoned back the next day and had a short discussion. Unfortunately 4 weeks wait to get back to me (I had to remind them so think they forgot). Then had 2 informal interviews with a management and senior management who were quite lovely.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Nothing majorly technical, asked opinions of what energy-related technologies would be most important in the future. Also asked about my opinions on low-carbon heating. Senior management asked a few general questions about where I saw myself in a few years time. Thankfully no silly/generic interview questions.
They messed me around, brought me in for interview twice and then decided a director needed to interview me too, for a third interview. At which point I had to do it online becasue I'd already given up 2 half days of leave for the process.
