This process was too long for no reason. After your initial phone call with the recruitment partner you then go on to have 2 more 1 to 1 interviews. So in total expect to be interviewed 3x being probed with the same questions and expected to further expand each time. This doesn’t even include the other steps taken such as the interactive games and discovery day activities. I had Asimah Razaque from instant impact and I can see all the lovely reviews about her but thats most likely because those people were given the role. In all honesty she only cares about doing her job and meeting her targets, when I sent her emails to ask her questions she did not reply. She also scheduled things in without communicating with me prior and didn’t confirm anything. When she gave me feedback on my discovery day specifically 2nd interview she was talking so fast on the phone with a really bad connection. She then took a personal attack on my personality saying that I need to dial down my energy as this can be interpreted as being unprofessional. I did get to the final stage where Asimah told me it was more a general chat I would have in office and gave me irrelevant prep information like she had done previous. Whilst actually being interviewed for the third time a guy called Zain there was extremely patronising and very unbothered about anything he even walked off after he asked his questions and left me with his other colleague Luke, who was very friendly and accommodating. When I heard back from Asimah 3 days later, she said I hadn’t secured the role due to giving irrelevant vague answers, which was no different to my previous interviews and if anything better. This whole experience has really depleted me and it hurt so much more as I took time off work for the interview process only to be dropped at the final stage. For what Octopus energy are providing this interview process is a shambles and I wouldn’t recommend.
