I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at GE Vernova (Rugby, England) in Apr 2016
Interview
First stage was online tests on SHL website. Numerical and verbal reasoning if I remember correctly.
Then came the video interview where they asked such things as:
- Who is your hero and why?
- Tell us about a time when you've persuaded someone to express their own opinion
- Tell us about a time when you've been working on a project and something went wrong, how long did it take you to notice and how did you deal with it.
After being told I was successful in the video interview I was put on a shortlist for face to face interviews, which I was then invited for roughly 2-3 weeks later.
Approximately 45 minute interview held by 2 managers within the company. Fairly relaxed, nice and friendly. Very conversational as I found the interviewers actually wanted to find out more about myself than listen to answers I had prepared and scripted. Interviewers made me feel at ease and we shared a few jokes to help build rapport.
Interview was successful and I was offered the job the next day.
Had an initial screening with the recruiter, followed by an interview with the hiring manager, then senior leadership and HR. The interview s were scheduled quickly, and I was told I would get a response from the recruiter.I followed up with the recruiter and HR after not getting any response, but was ghosted. A simple reply would have been sufficient, but the courtesy was not reciprocated.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at GE Vernova
Interview
They came on campus and I was invited for an interview which was really convinient because I didnt have to drive to their location. I was fortunate enough to have the HR Manager another location interview me and gave me the oppurtunity to think about my questions.
