I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at SSE (Portsmouth, South East England, England) in Apr 2018
Interview
Firstly you have to fill out there application process, pretty basic. You then have a online test, this is pretty difficult. I then had a telephone interview which lasts about 15/20 minutes and they ask you basic questions like why did you apply for this role etc. I passed this, they then invited me to an assessment centre with one date available. I couldn’t make the arranged date (2 weeks notice) which they then turned around and said “were put you in our talent pool and let you know when the job comes up again”.
Pretty unfair considering I went through a 2 week application process just to be turned away because I couldn’t make a certain date.
step 1 : application, this was easy I only gave a brief desciption of my current role.
Step 2: Online test, these were a little rigorous and you had to think them through
Step 3 telephone interview. Do your research about the company. Read about safety at work.
Step 4: Assessment Centre. This was easy bending a wire using your hands and pliers, while wearing gloves and eye protection glasses
