I applied online. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at E.ON in Oct 2015
Interview
I applied online in September 2015, and was invited to complete online tests in October, followed by a telephone interview. Almost 3 months later I received an invitation to the assessment centre, to which I declined - during this time I successfully gained a place on another graduate programme.
The recruitment process was very poor - I personally found the telephone interview left me with an overall negative feeling of E.ON. I found the interview to be very rigid and overly structured. Most of the interview involved being asked templated questions, and then I could hear the interviewer loudly typing away my responses, rather than actually listening to what I had to say. The questions were boring, long and very repetitive. It made the company seem very outdated in their recruitment process.
Following the telephone interview, they kept me waiting almost 3 months with no update. I had assumed I had been unsuccessful.
When I declined the invitation to the assessment day, I received no response back from the company. A month later, they sent me an email to say I had been unsuccessful following my phone interview and therefore would not receive an invitation to the assessment day - this proves the lack of clear communication on their side (having already received and declined the invitation), and did not motivate me to pursue a career in HR in this company.
